It would fit in my 51 gmc if I turned it sideways and bought the plug for the filler and then put a new filler cap directly into a splice on the upper radiator hose. Is this realistic to do? The only thing I don't understand is: can you use a radiator in any position? Sideways/slantwaysupside down, right side up etc?? That will answer my question. Thanks.
Whether you think you can or can't, you're right.
Also--in 2004, I invented the spotting alert network in stovebolt after seeing so many trucks when driving around. So that means I am cool.

You could always just move the filler cap to the top of the tank. http://www.afabcorp.com/AFCO_Dynate...ode=80147NT&Category_Code=hr_rod-radLook at the link and you will see that this core is running up and down just as your would be. You will need some mounting flanges, simple angled aluminum will work, again see above link. You are looking at a dirt track radiator, they work really well, Dad has one cooling his 478 ci Pontiac that has a block half filler with concrete. (concrete is for cylinder wall stiffness on race motors) Mounting will be you biggest challenge. Joe
