The rads out of my 78 and 79 (400 and 351M) will fit my Son,s 69 SWB 360 flange is about 28 inches across. Good luck, George

I believe all 2x4 and 4x4 from 67-79 interchange except 6 banger which, atleast on my truck, had the hose connections in the wrong spots for a v-8

I agree about the 8s vs the 6s. I just swapped my 240 for a 360 on my 2x2 69 and had to do a new radiator since both upper and lower connections are reversed. Other than that I think that everything is interchangeable.
