Title: Radiator size on a 71 charger?
Post by: 2harleyriders on February 18, 2007, 10:30:44 PM
I have a 71 Charger with a 318 A/C car. It is missing the radiator and shroud.  Did it have a 22" or a 26" rad.  My plans are to put in a 440.  Do I need to find a rad support for a 26" rad?

Thanks
Andy

With A/C it should have the 26" i think.

Yes, it should be a 26.   Interchange manual shows a few different part numbers depending upon application but all are 26.  It could have 3443960, 3443969, 3443970, or 3443971 for the rad core.

I have a 26" from a 71 with a 383 that I parted a month ago if you are interested.

The 969 is the only proper # my book shows. LEON.

If you plan of running a 440 you need it if you want to keep the engine cool on summer days. The 22" might work most of the time but not all the time.
