Hood adjustment
This is a question that might not find an easy answer here, but I thought I would try.
I put a reprod radiator on my roadster. Brassworks, I believe. I bought it used. I had swapped the original radiator with another original radiator in October and and the fit was as good as before. With the new radiator, the hood does not fit well. It could have been beginners luck last time.
I have adjusted the radiator rods to draw the radiator closer to the cowl and that helped some, but the gap on the cowl side is quite large. I am sure that there are a number of adjustments and shims that might help, but hopefully someone has some tips to help me out some. I will post a few photos later. Unfortunately, I do not have any before photos. There was a bit of a gap before, but it seems around 2x what I had before.
Thanks in advance
