A fella I work with has a radiator that he says came out of a luv. I dont need it, but hes gonna toss it and I thought I would get it in case someone here needed it. It looks correct dimensionaly, but my luv didnt have the original radiator to compare it to. I have a picture if my wife can get it small enough to post it. Can anyone give me a description or a pic of a stock one to compare it to?

Go thru the main gallery and find a pic of a stock one. There's a lot of trucks that run a recored stock radiator with their conversions.

Here is a semi-good shot of mine.

I have an automatic radiator in mine right now while I fix my standard one. I am gonna have a radiator built with another row for more cooling.

The automatic has a larger bottom tank to accomodate the trans cooler lines. I think. It looks that way compared to my standard trans radiator.
