AMD sells the core support stiffener that we used for the bottom. I think it was made to cover the original metal but ours was pretty beat up and we chose to eliminate it. Their piece does not come with a top lip like the original so we added one and welded the corners up because they come unwelded.
We also needed an access hole for wiring and vacuum lines to pass through. While at it I made mounts for the overflow tank.
Once everything was test fit I was ready for final welding.
It's difficult to see from this camera angle but the offset radiator inlet was definitely necessary to clear that upper lip on the core support.
