Search for your rad on rockauto, click on the info button, the dimensions will be there to compare to.

That is the same dimensions as my aluminum radiator in my 65. I had to modify the top bracket to make it fit nice but it will work.

How does that work with the cap right in the middle? That is where my 66' top bracket would mount over the radiator.

AHHHH my radiator, although the same dimensions as yours has the fill cap on the passenger side. You will have to get creative with the upper bracket to use that radiator.

For the OP, if the radiator your considering has the cap in the middle like that, I would skip and find one that fits with fewer to no modifications, for a 66' year.

Compare rockauto to the rad you are thinking about in the pic above. ;)
