Default Turbo Radiator in an NA

Anyone have pictures or guidance? I searched and found references, but no how too.
Looks like the radiator is the same width, but about 1.5" taller.

TIA

You can gain some height by using the turbo lower support, but at 1.5"+, a shim (block) may need to be fabbed & installed w/ longer bolts. Give me a sec, and I'll measure the actual mounting differences...

Greg

EDIT: 1986T has a vertical mounting space of 15" / 1987 N/A is 14". The turbo lower support is stamped with a recessed area of 1", so if you use the turbo lower support, the T rad should fit in the N/A. At the most, a small spacer and 4 longer bolts, and adjust the top mounting bolts. BTW, dcAuto has the turbo support cheap...

Use the turbo lower support...It'll fit just fine!
