Heres the Radiator you looking for kid, If you look around you can find them cheaper, but this pretty much bolts right up to your rad support and it weighs only 9 - 10 lbs
Upper hose i use is for a late 90's gm truck with a big block and lower hose i use (for big block guys) is for 86-89 mustang gt

LOL thanks for getting back to me Tony! Nice of you to post the info up here too for everyone to see 
If I can figure out a way to make the outlets work with my smallblock this could be a great way to go. Thanks!

Thats the rad i have run in my car for the last 12 years, i have to replace it becasue the top tank has a crack that even repaired is coming back (plastic tank) I figure the wheelstands have stressed it. Works Great for a big block and the hoses i listed are like factory fit. In the summer on the street my car runs about 190 with this rad. The nice part it has two bolts per side and it sits nice against the rad support. Mark the 4 holes and drill. thats it bolts right in. AND the best part its prob half the weight of the alum rads out there...Perfect for a limited street use car and race car...CHEAP too...LOL
Any pics of your installed setup?
When you say limited street, could you expound on this a bit?
Could it cool a basic big block street/strip car, or it asking a bit much of the design?

I SAy "limited" street use because thats all i used it for, My car has a 5 gal cell and i have not driven it in traffic , 50+ miles etc. Now i have driven around town etc and car shows in 90+ heat. Keeps my big block coll about 190ish and all i have is the old school elec w/p drive on a stock water pump and a 16" elec fan. Would it work in a daily driver? im not 100% sure. BUT it is very light, cheap , fits good.
....BAD A$$ STREET CAR.....

pretty good! I think I need to take a trip to the scrap yard and see what I can find in aluminum lightweight factory rads that may have the hose inlets on correct side for an SB....just not sure how I can get a hose from the passenger side of the motor to go all the way to the driver side inlet on the rad lol

I just use the 66-67 sb water pump for pass side lower rad hose neck and the later 68-72 water pumps for driver side lower rad hose neck...unless you running an electric pump of some kind then this is of no use to you.
so the later model pumps have the lower hose on the driver side? I have an edelbrock high flow water pump that I scored for free, so it must be modelled after the earlier models with the passenger side lower hose outlet.
Did the drive side hose outlet stop in 72, or did it continue in all late model small blocks?
Thanks!
