Lowering radiator?

I want/need to lower my radiator an inch or two. Is there a kit available or a "how to" article anywhere?

Anyone ever done this?

A&A's supercharger kit lowers the radiator by cutting the lower support and re-attaching the support forward of the original position. Works great. Give them a call.

I've got a killer intake fabbed up and I need the rad out of the way.

This rad lowering, it involves cutting and welding?

yes/no, cut the crossbar and move forward w/ the brackets that are bolted in; welded is better and looks

Andy has a 'how to' on the website

you'll also need to cut the lower hose and install an extension, the upper hose will most likely need the same treatment to get around the ebcm
