This Thing Is HUGE!
I just got one of these for my '66. https://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/C...+50028+2028028
The guy I bought it from said it might fit and I could return it if it didn't. I think this is for a 73 to 76. Will it fit in a 76 f250 4X4? If it does I will just swap radiators.
Also what is Ford's name for this (i.e. SuperCool, XtraCool)

Am I just looking at it wrong, but it looks as if the radiator mounts are on the same side as the radiator hoses, and in the caption it says rear mount. Maybe it means it mounts on the rear of the radiator support like every truck I ever had and seen.

I've seen them advertised in catalogs with the mount on either side, and just can't figure out how you would mount one on the front of the radiator support, Thats what I first thought when I first saw this.

It's perspective .... or you need some of these reading glasses like I got me finally after putting it off. 
The wider flange is at the front which is the far side in the below pic, the narrower one is at rear on same side as inlet / outlet and nearest the camera and it's what the shroud mounts to. The wider one mounts the radiator to the support panel.
At least mine always has?

I didn't get it from a Napa store, I just used their picture. The local Napa wanted $475 for one. The radiator shop, which gets there radiators from Napa, was $300.

Just looked at the Champion aluminum radiators; very reasonable prices. They fit and work good for you I assume? Shouldn't they resist corrosion too?
