I have read that "the radiator and front clip are married in a most unholy union"....

Good luck man.

Look into installing an electric fan while you've got it all torn apart. I hear it'll really help your fuel economy.

What do you mean by unholy union?
 






As I am tearing into this I am seeing three cores. When you purchase a radiator does it come with all three?
 






I suppose it would mean as complicated as marrying heaven and hell... I haven't done it myself but you're in for a lot of work.
 






 






Thank you Explorer04
