Moving right along.... Fitting the radiator etc.
Having sorted (FIRST) all the linkages for the clutch throttle etc, that hide under the oil cooler and radiator it is time to fit the oil cooler.
Before this you followed the workshop manual advice to remove the ends from the cooler pipes and anneal them (copper work hardens and in this state can crack!) Aside from the fact that I didn't do this, it might help to burn free some of the 60 year old crud that is stuck in the pipes, which leads to the need to be sure everything is very clean on the inside (just how much have you spent on that engine???)
Anyhow, fit the oil cooler in its brackets and then fit the left hand pipe. The fitting on the cooler sits lower for a reason- so that you can get spanners turning in there. Now you an do the other one.
To fit the radiator it would be easier with the cam plate cover and battery tray out of the way (how else do you get to hold the rad. mounting bolts?
I am just doing this now. (I have the wiring that crosses across under the cooler done)
It looks like the radiator drops in from the drivers side and slides sideways on top of the rubber mounts, to the left.(the left side plate has to go under the lower cover rail) Now you move the bottom forward so that you may fight the bottom hoses into place (not forgetting the hose clips) and then finally you move the radiator toward the rear until the mounting bolt holes line up.

As my only experience here is based on "present" and "future" maybe some of you "old hands" can "add to" or "refute" some of the above.

On another tack, If you have a generator with a regulator (british) then to test them you will need both to go to the auto electricians together.
