    What is the part number for a 1966 GT350 radiator? Was this the same radiator used in '66 289 Mustangs as well?

    Sorry, forgot to mention 4-speed. I didn't think about differences based upon time period. Of course, I know you have the carryover cars and the later '66 cars. I guess I didn't really think it through before asking. I realize there were many production changes throughout each year's model run but I am not familiar with radiator changes and thus the question. Were there other changes with regard to the radiator aside from carryover vs post carryover? I am curious about the post carryover cars. Do I need to be more specific?
    Thanks,
    Randall

    Post carry over period 4 speed radiators would typically use the brazed on ID tags (indicated the application code) and the stamped upper tank (showing supplier and assembly date)


    Often the tags were not returned when the radiators were opened and cleaned (rodded out) or recorded so allot of them are mssing

    Thanks Jeff. I guess that's why they sell the reproduction tags. I appreciate the info.
