Stock radiator to what? There are different radiators for different vehicles. Any radiator will work for a 302 engine. If it's for a 48 Ford, Ron Davis should know what the original radiator fits.

ditto what Ed said. If the guy makes aftermarket radiators, he should know exactly what fits in a 48 and plugs into a 302.
If the first yo-yo you talk to on the phone can't answer that easily, ask to talk to someone who can.

It depends. An original brass radiator could run from $300-500. Aluminum custom radiators are usually more. You might find a good used one, but I'd advise getting it cleaned out and checked for leaks by a radiator shop, which would cost you about $70 to have done.
