Yup, I am.

 

There’s a reason I did that...

 

Left room for the intercooler next to it?

 

Haha, no, that dream has sailed.

 

Howard, you made me laugh with your post. Non-the-less you forget, both Willys MB and the Ford GPW have an offset radiator although not to the degree of ITLKSEZ has.

 

Hmmm...guess I will put my chips on clearance for crank-driven winch.

 

cranky wench storage you say?

 

My cranky wench won’t fit there.

 

Here’s the template I’m working on...
Does that help?

 

I'm new at this but I'll guess - Cool air intake??

 

No, no it does not

 

That radiator doesn't look like your new aluminum one. Is that just a stand-in so your new one doesn't get all dinged up?

Could the big slot in the template be for a belt to power your AC compressor on-board air?

 

Yes, that’s the stock Honda stand-in. I’ve done enough damage to the aluminum one.

The York compressor will run backwards and the alternator will run forward, with their pulleys nearly face-to-face. The big opening in the plate is for the belts.

I’m off to the steel shop for a big chunk of 1/4” plate.

 

I had a real good idea it was for oba
