I don't know if they are the same but it works. I am running a 223 rad for my bored out 292 motor, keeps it cool for me.

The lower water outlet is on the opposite side. V8 has the outlet on the left/driver's side, and six on the right/passenger's side. The two radiators bolt up to the same brackets, but the V8 radiator has its brackets positioned so that the rad sits closer to the motor, since the V8 is shorter.

That is true what I did is forgot to mention when I used a different rad I bent metal pipe to divert water. Like a old flathead upper hose.
