    Have you considered running a Bantam radiator?

    Got mine for my avatar from Howe Radiators. https://howeracing.com/collections/radiators
    I drew them a picture of what I wanted. They checked with me for some details I hadn't thought about. The shot me a quote; very reasonable. Quick delivery. I'm satisfied.

    my 2 cents

    It looks like you have gotten plenty of options here but I'll throw another one out anyway. Back in the day, my dad had a radiator shop for a time. I remember him building a radiator for an MG for someone by finding a core with the right height, then cutting the width down to fit. He soldered up the top and bottom ends and cut down the tanks to fit. From what I recall, it didn't take long and the customer was thrilled.
    Of course, he did this with a copper/brass radiator.

    Nowadays , you'd have to mortgage all your worldly possessions for that kind of personal service ( if you could find it )

    I cut the car up to fit a honda civic radiator. Three weekends of cutting to gain .75 inches. It all worked though. Looks just like it did, only now it doesnt pee on the ground when you run it. IMG_2212.jpeg
