Dont have a period (.) button on your keyboard?

Have you test fit the BBC radiator in the K5 yet? I would do that instead and take pics and show us.

somebody correct me if I'm wrong but I think the newer trucks have a wider radiator then the old style. I know my old mcss had one from a 76 truck and it was 31x19 roughly and the one in my 88 k1500 is wider then 31x19 its like 34 or so. if so then you'll have to make your own mounts and crap.

Ditto on what swims said, what size radiator are you putting in there.  If it isn't stock stock you will have to fabricate mounts.

try to grab what you can, as far as the mounts go from the newer truck- top and bottom. Might be easier to modify those to work.

i will get some pics to day (period) and the size of the rad.

yea that's way bigger then an old style, they usually are around 31x19 or so.
