Radiator - yes Coopman, I'm a pro at that one now after pulling it for re-core then again because the overfill tube was damaged during re-core. Made a lovely mess of the engine bay as it was a small crack where it connects to the fill neck.

To clarify my #5. When the motor goes back in, if the camshaft is in the same position as removal gauging by the distributor slot; it should be all lined up for the transmission input shaft to slip back in?
Hey Will.....The transmission INPUT shaft does NOT need to be indexed to any particular engine position. If you think about it, that relationship changes every time you release the clutch. You've got it covered! Bundle-up, 'cuz it's gonna get nippy! DD
