Working on choosing a radiator. Lots of conversation here about various manufactures. Seems RD is the high end setup. Any other options to consider here?

You don’t have an option for a mechanical fan with that water pump.
The Mosely radiators are really nice for the money and we use them on all our builds.
 
Picked up a few goodies and small progress. Thanks to Will for the 80 air cleaner

Got a few parts for the x-member. Extended the stock mounting location forward with a welded in flange nut

And this beauty arrived. Less than a week from talking to Ron himself to it arriving at my door.

Also found some hoses recommended online and they should fit nice when trimmed.
