Burnedtoast,
Please elaborate how you mounted your radiator. Looks nice

X2. That's a nice looking set up Burnedtoast.

I could not locate these pix last nite, this is an 83 with OEM PS, the box should be right where yours is, motor is moved over to clear
TBI Crate motor, NV4500, it now has over 50k on it ...no issues

Also note this rig has a heat shield from Toyota on the PS box....

whoa!... Thanks, basically its the same principal as oem radiator bracket, but aluminum. A "U" channel mounts to the two lower factory holes in frame with two fat poly bushings. Then tig welded a 90 degree bent 1x1 from top to bottom on both sides of rad. tank. Bolt radiator to channel, then bolt to tabs welded to frame by exhaust via cut down body bushings. disregard and hold the fiberglass comments

Ya one of the worries I have is the differance of fuel tank locations between your 83 and my 74....trying to get the frame/drive train finished up....body is at body shop..so I cant test fit....

Anyone with a RT tanker and running AA motor mounts offset to the RIGHT?

You can come look at mine anytime in South O. I may be heading down to see Brett later too.

Thanks but the rams horns are part of the problem...Im trying to get info/measurements on the truck manifolds that dump straight down between the last two cylinders

 

[In2cruisers]

Maybe something like this?

 

[brew8]

I have a set of those as well, I can hang them on a SBC and make some measurments if you need them, Larry

The mid 70"s 3/4 ton and up, chev pickup will not have the air injection ports. It will only have 2 bolts at the flange. Look for the plug heatshields also. the last one I saw was a pick and pull in Ontario, Mission Ave and Milliken

This might also be an option
