Hey, my radiator support doesn't NEED to be replaced, but, you know how it it, "While I'm in there..." I was watching American Hot Rod, about the 65/66 fastback they redid. I saw that they bolted in the radiator support, instead of welding. Is this feasible? Does the support do anything for the car's stability/integrity, or does it just "support the radiator?" It sure would be nice to get that new motor in there, and not have a jacked up support on the topside...

I would weld it back in, in fact I did weld mine back in.

Remember its a uni-body car. Every bit counts. The radiator support is basicly the other half of whats holding your shock towers in the right place.
