455 Help

Guys,
This may seem like a stupid set of questions.... But.. I need your advice.
I just got my 455 painted and I am wondering what the best ways to reinstall it with the transmission mounted would be. It looks sooo good, I don't want to scratch it on the way in. I am using an engine tilter. Not the carb plate.
I also need some advice on a radiator. The car was originally a 350. I don't think the 350 radiator would be enough. I would like an aluminum radiator that can mount in with thw stock 350 lower brackets and the top plate.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I installed mine with the trans bolted up, my wife lowered the eng while I maneuvered the trans over the cross member, not a big deal.

If you want to keep the chains from hurting the paint. Take a bike tire inner tube place it over the chain.
