I spent a couple of bucks and bout their universal mounting kit. The tops are GM style so they got tossed, but the bottoms are J-brackets which work great. Came with that one-sticky-sided foam insulating strip that I stuck on, then bolted them to the car and slide the radiator into it. Could make similar J-brackets out of aluminum stock.

Did you already buy it? I bought a aluminum 26" on e-bay that has factory mounting tabs and shrod placement for $189. It fits very well. I will be adding some rubber under it when the engine goes in. It also has factory in and outlets and trans line placement
Do you have a link to the one you snagged ??? thanks

Did you put the J brackets under the tanks, or under the core?
Tanks - the core is completely exposed by the radiator supports original opening in my case. It slipped in nice and tight. The black strip between the radiator and support in this pic is the long side, mounted to one of the factory bolt holes...

Since the rest of my car basically looks like poop I didn't spend a ton of time trying to make mine look pretty, however I did make it functional with a little bracket holding a couple relays for the fan, but again nothing fancy. I don't use that fan setup anymore though...
