1971 26" Radiator

[Craig H.]

Hi

I need to replace the radiator in my 1971 350-270 with A/C.

On Corvette America site I find model X2215

Its hard to tell from the picture but does anyone know if it has the correct top and bottom support channels ?

They look wider than the ones on mine.

Any help would be appreciated

The picture of the new radiator looks like the 41 year old radiator in my 1970. My radiator came from the factory with a bolt not a petcock in the radiators drain. Learned on the first coolant change to use a back-up wrench when removing the bolt. Did not tighten the bolt as much as what I experienced on the first change.
