1979 radiator?

Hi guys this may sound stupid but I am just wondering how many cores a original radiator in a 1979 bronco with the 351m should have? I have tried to search but cant seem to find my answer and I figured this would be faster. Thanks

I believe mine had 2 cores. I have seen some that had 4 cores, but idk if they were factory or not like that. There was a factory super cooling option if I remember.

Not sure how far back the option goes but there were the standard 2-core for most of the V8's with an optional 4-core for units ordered with towing packages and/or severe use (public service/government) vehicles. The 4-core for later models had a different fan shroud due to the difference in thickness. But again, I don't know if this is true for units older than the "EFI era" trucks.
