Need measurements please... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm building a custom hood for the truck and have hit a snag...

I mounted the hood and found that the radiator I have is not going to work because the hood hits it before its closed.

To get this to work I'll need to find a radiator that's no more than 17" tall to the top of the cap...

What this does is makes me wonder if I find one that size will the cap be lower than the thermostat housing?

I'm running a mid 90's 350... this truck is a 67...

Can anyone who is running a 350 get me some sort of measurement from the bottom of the radiator supports to the the actual thermostat height please?
