Engine swap 300 small block to a 455 Buick

[buick skylark]

What do I use for cooling as far as shroud radiator and fan thanks

 

[Dr. Frankenbuick]

67 GS radiator, mounts and shroud will adapt to any 64-67 skylark with a 455.

I'm sorry I meant mounts for the radiator not brackets do they have to be out of a 67 gs or will universal ones work

 

[Dr. Frankenbuick]

The parts place, OPGI and Year one all carry a reproduction shroud. Griffen has an aluminum radiator replacement for the 67 and there are other universal models that are cheaper, but would require an external transmission cooler if you have an automatic. Brackets fit the wider GS radiator. So, you would need to find used or fabricate the bottom and top brackets.

Griffin offers some bolt in options which would work well:

Then you may even be able to adapt your current shroud or depending on the look you want, use electric fans.
