Default ZZP oversized radiator

ZZP does not kno what can be done to make their radiator fit on a Monte Carlo
According to their site it specifally states in red " does not fit in ANY year Monte carlo" it has been done. They have cars listed in their members page running their rad on a Monte Carlo. Any leads would be greatly appreciated. ZZP referred me here so I'm hoping someone has some info

Imp/Monte are bolted and grand prix uses clips for the fan to be held against the rad... After reading a few more forums on another site people have been using the oversized rad made from spectre that Was made for a 99 body style Monte carlo. 1 1/4" thick core.
