    Question on the copper radiator to plastic shroud seals on a 69 sb without AC

    Guys,

    I'm installing the shroud on my 69 L-46 4spd with copper rad and fiberglass shield and there are four seals to apply. The two side seals are obvious, but the top and bottom seals are not the same. They are roughly the same size but one has the adhesive strip on the thick edge of the seal and one has it on the thin edge of the seal (see attached pic). for some reason I recall the thick edge one goes on the top of the shroud and the thin edge one goes on the bottom but just wanted to see if someone can confirm this for me.

    Thanks,

    Mike

    Mike, Doc. Rebuilds web site shows a pic of the seals, from what I saw your assumption is correct.

      Michael,

      I believe the thicker seal goes on top in the middle. Dr. Rebuild used one of my cars to reproduce these seals when he first started out selling them.
