Rad for 65 with upper hose on ps? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I sure don't like the way the upper hose goes all the way over to the ds of the radiator like I see in so many other 63-66 LS swaps. Plus it interferes with routing the air intake toward the ds. Is it possible to get a rad with the upper inlet on the ps? Would it lose efficiency to have upper and lower on the same side? Does someone make one for the 63-66?

Sorry ya I meant passengers side. Wondering if it’s possible to run the upper hose to the passenger side of the rad and run the air intake to the drivers side.

If your gonna pull and return on the same side of the radiator, youd be better off with a cross flow split style..

Makes sense but I haven't seen one for a 65. Not sure if it's an option to custom fit one though.

These guys will build you a radiator just how you want it.
