Don and Lynn are giving you great advice, it may not be what you want to hear but Don hit the nail on the head, someone else's dimensions will only lead to trouble and Lynn is correct regarding PRC's radiators. I had them build the radiator for my '32 to my specs including which side the inlet/outlets were on and their diameters, even had them add a couple of extra fittings for an electric fan temp probe in the bottom tank and a steam vent line from the engine in the top tank. They are great people to work with and as Lynn mentioned, a lot less than Walker's $799 (including my A/C condenser and Spal cooling fan with shroud).
