22" to a 26" Rad swap

[71_Duster]

From what I have read the driver's side holes on the core support are unchanged it's only the passanger side that was moved over?

Can anyone confirm this? Pictures of the mount holes from the front of the core support and/or measurements would be awesome.

Depends on the car, I'd guess, but in my '68 GTX that's exactly how it worked out when I put a 26" radiator in this formerly 22" car. The drivers' side existing weld nut/holes in the radiator support lined up perfectly with the new radiator and I just drilled two new holes on the passenger side of the support.

The radiator lined up true and level when I did so, centering the radiator on the fan centerline almost exactly (which apparently totally screwed my chances for getting a factory shroud to work, however - the ones I've seen have an offset to them).

A few caveats here - the radiator I bought turned out to be mostly for c-bodies (and according to the manufacturer, SOME b-bodies as well). The radiator fit between the rails real close, too, looked like it was meant to be there.
Still working up the nerve to hack out the extra few inches of opening for the radiator as well, like I should - I don't want to butcher that job.
