Numbers for 71' RR 26in radiator

[pats71]

I'm in the process of trying to locate a 26 inch radiator for my roadrunner since I'm trying to go for the "origional" look. The radiator is the only thing I need to make the car complete but the previous owner threw it away for an aluminum radiator.

Can anyone tell me the numbers on the top of their radiator? I'm not sure if they're the same for a satellite or not. I've got a guy on moparts trying to sell me some of his but he thinks they're out of a new yorker. Thanks guys.

Need more info to give you the correct part number. Auto or manual trans? A/C? Engine size 383?

[pats71]

Sorry, need to get in the habit of giving info. 383, manual trans, A/C. Not sure if a 383 radiator will work with a 440 or not.

It will... at least the original 383 radiator now works in my 440+6 Runner.

Mine was also a 383 4-speed with A/C originally.

There is a good chance of it being a 3443959 with a 4-spd and AC. Do you have a Broadcast sheet? If not, does your car have an axle package listed on the tag (A36)? If it is supposed to have the 959 radiator, good luck, very pricey for good core ($500-800) or $1,200 new from Glen Ray Radiators in Wisconsin

I don't have a broadcast sheet, just the remains from a mouse. I don't think the fender tag has the code listed for the axle ratio but I know for sure the car has a 3.23 sure grip posi, 8 3/4.

I'll look for my part # book later and see if there was another rad # for your application unless someone beats me to it. The 3.23 ratio was standard and the sure grip was optional and would only show as D91 on the BS and not the fender tag. I had a '70 RR 383 4-spd 3.23 with AC and it used the 2998956 radiator which is the '70 version of the 959. Basically called Hemi radiators, since they used them as well...
