    Can someone please recommend a drop in replacement radiator for a '68 GT 350 with a 302?
    I'm looking for something that looks stock and is a true drop in replacement, no cutting, fitting, etc.
    Thanks

    Did the 68 GT350 come with the 24" (heavy duty) radiator? If so the one that NPD sells looks good and works well. Note: you have to have the brackets that bolt to the strut rod housings for the radiator to sit in. The repros DO NOT fit - get OEM ones off ebay.

    My car is a '68 that was originally a 6 cyl., but now has a 302.

    you will not find a drop in radiator that both looks stock AND is aluminum. Pick one or the other.

    Did a '68 Shelby GT350 originally come with a 20" or 24" radiator?

    Was the lower radiator inlet on the driver or passenger side?

    Thanks
