I did this. I've got one 16" and one 14" and have upgraded to a 94 Amp alternator off a Chevy Van, cause the stock 78 Amp one was not enough at night to keep the haedlights from dimming with the fan on, which is just wired into an on/off switch (which has been forgotten to be switched on when driving a couple times, but never overheated it yet).

Wire up a thermostatic control. You can get one for around $30 bucks at autozone. It's adjustable and comes with the relay and circuit protection.

What brackets did you use to hold the radiator in place? I have an 81 Chevy and the stock ones don't look like that? -Thanks

If you are referring to the original post in this thread from 2008 he may not respond but those are the stock 6 cylinder radiator mounts for 81 up rad support
