I can't help with the old radiator, but the NAPA part number for the flex fan is 823-1259 for stainless and 823-1252 for aluminum. My old radiator is two inches thick in the core area. Ron

I have a brand new standard radiator that I got from US radiator. If there is a skinnier radiator I can try to sell this on, it is brand new never installed as you can see. Can you tell where to get this old radiator?

I have approx five eigths inch clearance between the radiator and the bolt heads that holds the fan in place. Durwood, a member of this list gave me the info on the flex fan. I might be able to find a part number.

I am just about to order the short shaft water pump. There is a special fan that has to be purchased (from Jim Carter) as I am told by them, that needs to go on this installation. Jeepers, I hope to not have problems getting the rad in, as I am ordering a new rad at the same time, and new hoses top and bottom. I can't help you with this, as I am not that far along. Perhaps someone else can advise us both. Janice ------------ --------- --------- --- Be smarter than spam. See how smart SpamGuard is at giving junk email the boot with the All-new Yahoo!
