Uh, nothing .... is nothing good for you?

I have a 25" in my 69 car now, my old 69 had a 20". Although I never tried swapping the rads between the two cars I couldn't see any differnce in any way, even the mounts look the same. The 25" is tight to the battery but not enough to cause a problem.

I would be very suprised if you have a problem making the change.

Good find, I have the 24" radiator in wvcat from the factory (3 core) You should have no problems unless the outlets are wrong diameter. There may be a difference between big block/small block but I'm not sure about that.
