I was wondering if you could repost the pictures of your hood. It says they have been deleted....

I have a question....Socalli said to use a rad from a 92 truck. What size rad is it? A wider rad then stock will interfere with the ac lines. I am curious to see how it fits in..

I finally have an update. I got the problem fixed. As I said before my van always ran at around 225 deg and sometimes a bit higher but never fully overheating. I blamed the radiator because it was a "cheapo" from a no name parts store. I replaced it with the "Heatbuster" from Aut...

They should fit all the awd vans. When I did my conversion I called Racecraft Conversions. They told me the Flow Tech is the header they use for all their conversion.

I was doing some research today... The stewart pump I used rotates counterclockwise. I used the stock acc drive that was on the van. What direction should it be turning? 92 safari w/cpi.

I need clarification on which radiator to use. I have a 1992 safari cpi to v-8 conversion. Everything went smooth during the conversion and it runs great. The only issue I have is with the cooling. I am running a basiclly stock 5.7 (bored 30 over) block, a hi flow water pump, 180 deg hi flow thermos...
