It wasn't. I did call Cold Case on it though and so did Matt. After we got told to modify the car, I called them out on the forum and was met by pretty much the same thing. Several members dog piled on ME for doing it. Oh and the Summit Radiator is sittin in my livin room floor. It looks nice too. Gonna drop it by Mr. Buddy's tomorrow. We have to get all of the V8 mount and shroud stuff because this was a 6 cylinder truck. We'll know a little more about how it fits then, but it measures the same as the stock V8 radiator, so I think it'll be fine.
