undo the six bolts holding the radiator and frame to the front clip. this will allow you to move the assembly forward enough to get the shroud out. I used a tie down ratchet to gently pull it forward

I dont want to screw up putting it back together with a new aluminium radiator.
-Remove Hood
-Remove Fan assembly
-remove the 6 side bolts holding the Rad support, 2 support to crossmember and the brace
I pulled the whole unit out as an assembly and reinstalled it.
I'll take some pictures when i do it next week and document the process.
Bought Aluminum Direct fit from Zip for $399. (says made by Dewitts)
hope this cools the 454

I am about to go through this same exercise. Last time i did it I found the following seemed to work.
-Remove Hood
-Remove Fan assembly
-remove the 6 side bolts holding the Rad support, 2 support to crossmember and the brace
I pulled the whole unit out as an assembly and reinstalled it.
I'll take some pictures when i do it next week and document the process.
