    Does any body have the overall length and height dimensions for the smaller radiator with 18 5/8 core width. This is the one with the wider mounting flange on on side. I would be cuting the flange down to about 2 inches wide for fiting in my chopped interanational grill shell, Has any one used this radiator for cooling a basically stock 350 chevy and did it run cool ?

    Your local auto parts store will have a catalog with illustrations of all the available radiators showing dimensions.

    I just measured the one in my '70 340 Dart. It measures 24 1/2" flange to flange and 22" across the core. It is 22" from the bottom tank to the top tank. Add another inch (23") for the radiator cap.

    95% of the 318 radiators are this dimension with the exception of cars with A/C. Those cores will be 26" across.

    My radiator cools my aluminum headed, 400 hp 340 very well.
