    '72 Copper radiator upper shroud seals?

    What exactly, should the top of the radiator, and shroud look like with the top foam seals in place? I am unsure which seal to use between the shroud and radiator across the top.

    I have the air dam figured out, but how much of the radiator top plate (with the rectangular cutouts) should be seen?

    This is a base motor 350, copper radiator car.

    Any photos would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Doug

    Doug the upper shroud seal is about the lenght of the shroud and the radiator top plate slots should not be covered.

      Buy the seals for the radiator and the fan shroud from Dr. Rebuild. His are the best, and they come with great directions.

      No, really, just do it.

      And no, he doesn't pay me a dime to say this. I've just used them and judged others.
