i currently have an inline 6 in my 71' and the radiator needs to be replaced. i am going to be putting a v8 in it sometime this summer. if i buy a radiator for a v8, will the inlet and outlet be in the correct places for the inline 6?

I thin so. quicks draw....
V8's are top drivers side, bottom passenger side.... the summit direct fit aluminum.... is a excellent choice @ 260.00?

a 2 core 1" tube aluminum radiator from summit.. is the same physical size as a 4 core copper and brass....... I imagin yours is a 2 or 3 core.... mine is 3.25" at its widest... the tanks @ the weld seams... the core is 2.5"
