Another question and observation. Prior to buying my M code car I researched what I could find on line to see what to look for. I'm now planning on using a couple resources to help see what's right? The two sources with the best picture were the green "mopar nats gold" certified car that sold at Russo Steele and a white car that sold at Bay Motors.
I noticed the white Cuda had incorrect 440 Cuda decals on the fenders but the certified green car doesn't appear to have torque boxes in front of the rear springs?? My car and the white car has them, assume all cars were like equipped?

A question on your car, it looks to have been changed to large bolt pattern, does it have 73-up style discs?

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

Yes the car was upgraded to disc brakes from a 73 A body. I'm going to leave it that way and use 14x 5.5 wheels with 4.5 bc

What's the difference between a B-body 22" radiator #2949053 (383/440) and an A-body (A13) 22" radiator 2949065?

And if anyone has a 2949065 radiator or even the top tank or PM me please. Thanks

I compared rad specs in the service manual. It shows the 065 having a 10" trans cooler and the 053 having a 12" cooler.

Mine had a 2898045 68 B-body rad in it when I got it and the mounting holes were spaced further apart, they had drilled some extra holes on the passenger side rad support to mount it.

The 065 radiator is a 3 row core . I never compared the top hose location between the 2

Top hose location is the same, bottom hose is not. The 065 is at the very end of the tank and has a larger opening.

If the lower hose fitting is not ALL THE WAY over the the drivers side the lower hose hits the oil filter.

This is exactly why I'm so confused as to why these M-Code A-bodies don't get the price they surely (don't call me Shirley ) are worth. It's easier to find an A12 air filter base than a left exhaust manifold or a correct radiator and you can find 26" reproduction 054 and 055 radiator that were far less common than a 22" radiator in a B-body road runner that they made over 84,000 of them in 1969 with at least half of them or more with a 22" radiator.... okay I feel a little better after that

Bob, come on MAKE A REPO 22" RADIATOR FOR PETE'S (no make that for) MIKE'S SAKE!! I know I'm not the first one to ask you for a 22" rad, surely (I said don't call me Shirley ) I won't be the last either.

Had the opportunity to pick this one up off a member here a while back. Not cheap, but...

You can see the lower hose location is right on the d/s of the rad.

I forget that you suffer from A.D.S. , thinking maybe someone can make a tag for you to solder over the wrong number if you can scare up the right bottom tank ?

I thought that the round top 22" was repopped ?

Not by Bob at Glen-Ray...Bob and I talked about that a few times and I'm sure that I'm not the only one that has talked to Bob about a 22" round top radiator, am I Bob I think there are way more different 22" rt radiators that makes it tough to single out the ones with good enough demand to make it worthwhile to repo one versus another?

Bob does indeed repop the 383 radiator for 1968 2898033, I got him the originals so he could make the tanks. I have one of his radiators sitting right here in front of me, $1,195 each! He has the top tank for the other kinds too, I believe he can build a 2949065 because it is the same tank as the 340 radiators.
