Ron Davis Radiator too tall

I bought one of these Ron Davis radiators during the original group buy organized in 2006 by Denver_whiteST185 for my 92 ST185
here: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=14956

So anyway, I'm finally off my ass building the car, and the radiator is quite a bit taller than stock. Am I the only one who has experienced this? I could build spacer blocks and pray the hood closes, or I could hope Ron Davis makes it right.

So should I expect spacer blocks to work with no hood issues, or what?

Thanks,
Josh

How is it attached at the bottom? I know the stock rubber inserts have material that could be removed to drop the rad.

Ya, it sits in the stock, rubber mounts on the bottom. I checked hood clearance last night, and it looks like it will actually fit, even though it's tall. So for now, I'm not too worried. We'll see.

i've got a koyo 205 3" in my 16x. i had to cut the bottom mounts off and move them lower.

So it worked out, and I didn't have to cut down the lower rubber cushions at all.

I added spacers under the brackets at the top, and it holds in place great now, with the mandatory wiggle room you want for a rad.
