I installed two of the Wizard Brand that TRF sell. You can also by them =
directly from Wizard Cooling. They fit fine, no problems. The first one =
was quite a few years ago and the mounting holes were not drilled in the =
correct location. The second one was maybe five years ago and it had the =
dual mounting holes, forward and aft. It also had the bung for an =
electric fan sensor already drilled in the top tank. Obviously in the =
years in between, Wizard has improved their product. The welds look =
really great. Most aftermarket aluminum rads, including the Wizard, do =
not have the opening for a hand crank. I know, I know, not many of you =
crank start the car these days :-)  However, some may have a concern =
about the missing opening.
