The reason why I did this install was non-availability and/or sky-high prices for an EE8/EF8/SiR radiator.
Take a small angle grinder and a Dremel and cut this piece out of the front chassis:

Finish, spray, put tectyl and some rubber to protect the bottom of the radiator. I used some vacuum hoses and cut it lengthwise:

A bracket on top from aluminium strip:

This setup works best with a slim fan:

Finished install, hood closes smoothly. The original pilars for the bracket on the radiator top and bottom have to be cut.
When connecting the bottom hose I found out that a small piece of the cross member need to be cut also to fit the hose. The hoses and the bracket keep the radiator firm in place.
NOTE: this install was done on a SiR. I don't know about fitment on other types, without the SiR hood.
