Default Radiator Support Seals

Is there a detailed instruction picture of exactly where each seal should go--the AIM manual is marginal--I am not positive mine are exactly where they should be.

Holy **** dave... I was just doing this tonight... same problem. I have the "support seals" kit from ZIP Products, but the AIM shows the seals going on the radiator to seal the fan shroud in. Are there two sets of seals??????? Gooood question..............

Go to Dr Rebuild some very nice schematics and great radiator/shroud seal kits as well.

Wish I'd have thought of this. At least it's a resolution I can probably keep.
