When you run a V8 radiator with a 300 inline six cylinder you have to fab your own hoses. I was able to trim the top hose up enough to get it to fit and then connected the 2 pieces using a piece of pipe.

The bottom radiator hose took the longest to get right, but I ended up using 2 stock 6 cylinder hoses on the water pump and radiator and then cutting the hose I had grabbed with the junkyard radiator and using it to connect the two.

Finally at 10pm I got everything back together and the radiator filled back up. I'll have to test drive it tomorrow and check for leaks.

About to polish this literal fucking turd and call it done...

We made it!

Mercury coming through like a champ!

3 pairs of Power By Ford 460 valve cover for $30? Uh yeah!
