Yes the will bolt right in. You need to use a lower hose from a 73-87

yes, except for unless its a 72-87 6 cyl one, if you dont know thne check the VIn of the donor truck and make sure third digit is not an S, make sure its an M or S, first two can be C or K, it doesnt matter, also caprice and other full size GM car radiators will work,
6 cyl radiators are shorter and use different top plate that mounts down lower and on front side of rad suppot at top of rad opening. this is wh ythere are two sets of bolt holes on 73-up radioators on 67-72 the difference on 6cyl ones was width, so are two spots for cushion retainers to mount., the 73-up radiator lower hose port is straight unlike curbed upwards like before 73, that can be modified inexpensively at local radiator shop, can also swap tank off an older radiator onto later one in most all cases. is also same way to convert an autop radiator to a manual one this is true for only 2 and 3 core radiators, 4 core are whole different world. G body(cutlass, regal, monte), F body(camaros), X body(novas) uisually are too short good luck |

<---has proof under my hood to back up these guys.
you won't be able to run a stock 67 - 72 shroud...not if you need the rad's tranny cooler. |
