I have a 440 with a front plate. I'm working on fitting a coldcase 26in rad with E-fans. For anyone that had done this, what mods did you have to do to the core support?

Custom Built 1965 Supercharged 472 Hemi Barracuda This early A had a Hemi transplant and they moved everything forward toward the grille. The engine compartment looks really nice and clean the way it was done. There were better pictures of the build but I can't find them. There are 2 in this ad that show some detail. NICE BUILD you are doing there!

Simple, you cut the old one out and make a new one core support that puts everything where you need it.

on my 73 dart I mounted a summit 27.5x19 aluminum radiator. I didn't have to do any mods to the core support. it was an aluminum 2 core rad. I used an offset 3.8 V6 ford taurus fan.
 
Well I put a 26 inch cold case in mine... and I'm not recommending anything because my build may vary greatly from yours. My car is not for show its just for fun and I'm by no means a good fabricator.
That being said I gutted the frontside of my core support and mounted my rad trans and oil cooler in the front and the fans on the back. It made lots of room and solved the issues of zero space completely. I will have to use hood pins now because the factory hood latch is gone now.
