I put a factory replacement radiator in my 2+2 when i did my LS swap but I am looking to swap to a dual pass radiator with the inlet and outlet on the passenger side to get rid of the giant snake of upper radiator hose and clean stuff up a bit.
I would prefer a direct fit 18.5x30.5-ish radiator like is factory in a G body so i can re use my interpid fan and upper support plate, but I am not finding much? I have only seen like one or two $600+ ones from places like brp rods, be cool, and others. I am fine spending $250, but $600 isn't worth it to clean stuff up visually.
I see some in the 19"x31" sizes, but from what I know G bodies/most GM stuff used that 18.5x30.5ish size core and most aftermarket places round up size. Does a proper 19x31" radiator fit in a stock G body core support?
That jegs one is as close as anything I have seen to fitting, but doesnt appear to have the upper and lower isolator mount locations?

This allstar one also looks like it will work with the factory g body rubber isolators, but i would prefer to avoid the plastic crimped tanks.
