Default Need a dimension;34 ford

I'm installing my recored stock 34 rad and the stay rods are new. I don't plan on running a hood for a while so I need a measurement from lip of the top of the firewall in the center to the back of the rad stay rod bracket. Any help is appreciated

Hello S, I can do any measurements you want on my 34, but the measurement you describing would vary based on if the radiator was push forward or backward because when it’s not attached it has a lot of wiggle room, but I can give you the measurement of how mine is with the stock rods in place and tighten down

From the front lip of the firewall to where the rods attach on the radiator rod bracket is 28.75”. See photo
