Default Install sequence for radiator, shroud, and core support?

Hello Guys and Gals....

With the help of a friend, I accomplished a major milestone Saturday evening... I got the engine back in the vette! The drive train, electrical, and headers are all installed.... A few pics are attached - it's still a work in progress, but who knows... I may get it started before the first snowfall!

My question is what's the best sequence in installing the radiator, shroud, and core support? I broke the original shroud when I removed it. I would hate to do repeat that with this replacement.

Thanks!

Nice looking mill! Assemble the radiator to the support,then install the shroud. Use new seals on both then install the "sandwich" as one in the car with a helper. Much easier this way.

Gary,

Thanks for the reply. I'll definitely need a helper to manuever that sandwich!
