Good news! Went out and check my donor cab and its a '92 cummins and I have the core support with it! It's got one little ding in it but other than that it's pretty good shape and will give me better ground to build off of. Pretty sure I'm gonna switch to the IC radiator and chop this 3rd gen intercooler to fit. Can anyone measure outside width of their IC radiator please.

Another good thing about that intercooled core support, you can upgrade to the crossflow radiator. You'll have to switch over some other stuff, but its all easy.

Sorry man, I can't even get to mine. If anything sits here for much over a week it gets buried and /or used as a shelf. :?

You didn't say when to remind you. The blame for this is entirely on you
