I can't seem to find any info about the radiator. My 216 radiator is a 0 lb one. Will this work for a 235 swap or do I need another radiator that needs a pressurized cooling system? Thanks.
It's a small world, but I wouldn't want to paint it.

Have a good radiator shop go through it and tell you its good, then get Pre'68 Daves water pump adapter so your fan is in the center of your radiator, and you have it made. Doing it right may be more expensive than doing it half-fast, but it's COOOOL! I use a 4 pound cap just for good measure on that 0 pound radiator.
