Do I have to have the ac parts? I'm not planning on installing ac, it's too bad I don't live closer to Texas I bet you have all the parts I need Lol im trying to locate a radiator Now. I did locate a nice support for 75$ near me I'm gonna pick up next month after I get the valve cover/fuel line from you

Nope you don’t need ac parts, especially in your neck of the woods

Yeah it doesn't get hot for too long here during the summer maybe 100' a couple times a year during a 3 month summertime lol I had a argument at the junkyard over how I wanted to instal a different core support, they said it would never work since my trucks not a auto, with ac and xlt

Got core support today for 35$ slightly damaged but it will do some sheet metal work fixed it, fan shroud was also free but light damaged fixed with sheet metal. Radiator unfortunately is plastic tank aluminium one but it should do plus lifetime warrantee so we will see, spent 10 hours fighting it today, tomorrow I'll be installing radiator and pre cutting some stuff to put intercooler in at a later day. Everything else is done though been working in dark and cold with some rain but under shelter lol

Good to hear. Pretty soon, you'll be enjoying the fruits of your labor. I still can't understand why Ford ever used anything other than the tall, wide radiator.
