just saw your post and noticed you said you had to put the starter in first? on my E body, I had to install the header first then the starter, after a couple of trail fits I needed to ding my headers too. removed the power steering gear box which would not fit afterwards. went with a manaul gear box - was hammer tight up against the shock tower two hits and she was in. stubborn I was without jacking up the motor... didnt want the extra work that night, my excuse to switch.
planning on picking up my dana this week.
radiator is here and is missing the brackets.
