So obviously there are a few different ways to mount the 4.6 radiator in a fox, but for the 82 I decided to do it differently from my 86. The first thing I did was mount the lower radiator brackets from the mach 1 on the 82 and removed the originals. I then made upper radiator mounts out of the uppers from the mach 1, by adding some clip nuts on the inside of the radiator support in factory holes. Lined everything up, squared and got all the measurements correct and welded it together. I decided to tilt the top slightly toward the support, but it can be done to be straight. I plan to make a cover for the radiator that should cover the mounts, but didn't want to rely on that to hold the radiator alone. Here's some pics and I'll add some more after they're smoothed and finished.
