Quail Fitment

[SuperDave]

When looking at Mac's radiators I notice one that stated the ID is 1.5" and the quail my need a Dremmel tool used. Just what has to be done to the quail ?
Has anyone "been there and done that"??

Yes, I have been there and done that. It is an easy operation and it only takes a few minutes. The attached link gets you to Snyder's installation instruction and describes what you need to do. The material is not real hard and can easily be shaped.
