  Grfishmaker there is almost 2" adjustment at the end & another 2" at the nuts that hold the casing in place. I think that could give you a short amount of travel at the trans & long travel at the stick. I'll let you know for sure later.

the old trucker:

  REMEMBER THAT BEATLES SONG CALLED " HELP ". Well that's what I need now, & lots of it.. 

  Gror do you have your rad mounted in the stock location ?? How did you get the top rad hose to work..

In the pic below you can see where the rad is situated. I looked at Grors pics & his rad looks like it's 3-4" ahead of mine. I'm wondering if my engine has to go farther ahead or just lift the rad up a bit.

Thought you might like to see how I am going about hooking up my trans linkage. The top two pics show the before & the bottom two show how it will look when I get it welded.

grfishmaker:
OT, can't you just cut off some of the pipe on the rad so that you can just use a 90 degree rubber rad hose to tie them together. Or am I maybe missing what you are asking.

the old trucker:

  The problem is the pipe on the rad is alot BIGGER ROUND than the pipe on the goose neck. On Grors it looks like he has 2 different size hoses on his. Also I think the rad has to go a bit higher & I think it will interfere with the rad door closing. Right now my rad is back past the back axle. I noticed on Grors it looks like his is ahead of the axle.
  I think if I keep the rad where it is now, I can leave the fan off the engine & find an electric fan to fit in place.
 
  I'm open to any suggestions anyone has. I need HELP !!

                                                               A puzzled OT.
