I mocked up the front end on my car this weekend. New ford tooled fenders, new headlight buckets(aftermarket), and original lower valance, stone guard. My headlight buckets have a little 'tab' on the bottom, facing back toward the core support. Is this tab supposed to be resting against the core support? Mine seem to be about 3/8-1/2" off the core support, and I am having clearance issues with the leading edge of my fiberglass hood, it is hitting on the upper edge of the headlight bucket where the grille screws on. Do I need to tweak the headlight bucket to get it to seat against the core support to get things in proper alignment? I am going to attach the headlight cover tonight and see if I possibly need to bring the hood forward a little bit.
Second q, what are you guys with a 5.0 conversion using for a lower radiator hose? I ordered a conversion radiator with the outlet on driver side. Will a standard 5.0 stang lower hose work, or is there a part # for a lower hose I should use.
Thanks guys.
