I remember seeing how someone cut their core support and added tubing to the bottom in order to move the radiator fwd to get more radiator clearance. I was unable to find anything by searching and was hoping that someone could show me pictures of how they did this on their own cars. I'm going to need a new core support to repair my car after hitting the wall, and I figure that this would be a good time to do this. Besides that, moving the radiator and fans forward would have prevented my accident. I'd appreciate any help or advice you could give me.

Heck Gary, Thats what I'd do on that link. Get your shock-tower alignment checked, and whack off the bent rails and inners. Just make sure the the radiator fill is higher than the thermostat housing when your done.
