I just purchased a custom built rad from Mancini for my '68 B body. Every opening is placed where you instruct them. The holes for mounting are also put where you tell them. It might be a bit expensive, but the ease of mind and installation might be worth it.

Landon, now I have a q for you: Is there really a difference in coolant flow between using bent rubber and flexible stainless steel braided hoses? I'll be ordering soon and was leaning towards steel braided.

idk about the stainless hoses - too expensive for me. i had one of those rubber hoses that are accordion-like with a spring in it. but it still would collapse and kink, thus limiting flow. i suppose the stainless ones would work if they are able to bend in a tight enough radius. jmo, but what i'm using now is much better than a kinked/collapsed flexible hose.
