Also used the cradle approach, trying to emulate the way GM mounts radiators in rubber mounts. Making cradle type mounts with rubber inserts for the radiator is fairly straightforward. Making brackets on the aluminum radiator to hold it in place in the rubber, or mount the fan was a little more difficult. I used Devcon (hardware store) Z7 epoxy and shelving bracket (hardware store) wall mount pieces cut to size and epoxied in place on the radiator. No welding, and no penetration of any radiator surfaces.

Used 1 3/4" stainless exhaust tubing for the lower water crossover.
