It is an osc 368 and it came in in good shape but cheap as hell looking it is longer than my stock unit and the places where the brackets hold it are too far apart and not rounded. so it wouldn't fit if I wanted to. Where can I find a radiator that will just bolt in? I don't need a transmission cooler but they all appear to have this. I appreciate any help.
I bought my truck last year out of CA. It has the 250 and I have plans to install a 292. This truck was built in CA with the 250 and has a 3 core radiator along with a fan shroud. It runs cool all of the time. My thoughts would be to have this one rebuilt if need to instead of buying a new one.
