I'm also planning on useing either the jimfab or z10 for my project. I was planning on useing the civic rad. Is John useing a custom crossmember? I'm wondering why the rad sits too low...I would reread the original post but as you all know it's down. Shouldn't a 5th gen rad sit right on top of the aftermarket crossmembers? Is the neon rad a bit shorter?
As far as the cost of the premade crossmembers keep in mind the whole insurance deal. I was speaking to a friend in insurance and if you have somthing that is "not reccomended" for street it could (if they could figure it out) cause issues. Is the extra $ worth it for the Z10 that has "for street and track" listed...hmm. I wonder how they came to those conclusions, and I wonder what thier liability is. And what sucks more is the extra price you have to pay for the Z10's if you are using a D series...damn man.

im having a custom crossmember made (there is another post about that), not sure how much clearance that will provide.

i scored the radiator though! its from a 75 Civic and it about half the size of the radiator in my CRX now (generic aftermarket Civic/CRX replacement). i will try to post some pics of it and some dimentions later...

was trying to strip the flaking paint off then sray it with another coat of paint.

the radiator measures: 15 inchs wide (not including the braket), about 16.5 inchs tall, and 2 inchs thick.
im going to intall it with a slim high flow fan (~1000cfm, 10-12inch)...
