I understand that the 7.4L Suburban radiator is the same width, but is 2 inches taller and roughly twice as thick (2 cores vs 1 core) as the 5.7L radiator. I know that those extra two inches of core height are accommodated by different upper radiator mounts and a different upper shroud. My question is:
If I swap to the 7.4L radiator, mounts, and shroud, will the fan on the 5.7L line up with the shroud?
And is it possible to use the 5.7L mounts and shroud and simply modify the insulators (rubber) to fit the taller core? I don't think I can get 2 inches out of those rubber pieces, but if somebody has done it I'm all ears.
Thanks guys!
