The stock brackets stick out the front of the assembly, toward the front of the car; to lay down the rad, you cut them off, swap them end-for-end AND TURNED BACKWARD. This puts the stock brackets pointing out the back (closer to the windshield) so when the rad is in & you line up the holes, the rad lays forward. This leaves about 3" between the front of the rad tank & the hood hinge plate.
