what is radiator core width?

Sep 08, 2004 2 Replies

Hello,


I'm trying to order a new radiator for my



1975 Camaro, 350 V8, A/T, no airco.

However, yearone.com and camaroland.com seem to contradict eachother.



According to camaroland, I would need a 20" corewidth radiator if I do not have airco? Yearone seems to indicate a 26-1/4" core width, regardless of airo?



What is 'core width' ? How do I measure it? The width of the total radiator in my car exceeds 26", so I am confused.



Does anyone know what radiator I should order? I'm in Europe, so its hard for me to send one back if it does not fit. Also, what supplier has a good international service? Yearone's registration forms do not accomodate international customers in any way.

Core width is the width of the finned part of the radiator and does NOT include the tanks. I can't remember the width of your radiator off the top of my head, but A/C and non-A/C cars are the same width. So is the 3rd generations radiator.
