When I put the 305 from my 77 GMC into my 49 GMC, do I still use the origial rad from my 49? I know there is flex hose to use. I'm stumped on this one.

If your radiator is in good shape it should work just fine with the 305. From what I read years ago on the 216 chevy motors the 216 thermostat housing would bolt on a V8 so the top hose inlet on the radiator would not have to be changed but it might be the same with the GMC motor also. grin

Thanks Jeff,
I will take it to a local rad shop and get them to check it out for me.
