I bought a new rad that "fits" my truck from eBay. Here's a pix showing my new rad and my old one. The new one is taller, so I need a new upper hose. The new one has larger inlet and outlets. The new one does not have the sloped bottom corners. The flanges on each side have the correct holes and they are properly spaced.

Since the inlet and outlets are smaller than what they should be, I'm wondering if my original rad was not really original...

BTW, I don't have an automatic. so I'm just ignoring the ports at the bottom. Should they be plugged?
