Alan did this curved neck radiator come out of one of your Novas?

i noticed on the crg site that they have noted production exceptions in radiator application and installation on the assembly line... i wonder if that was a possibility on the nova line as well?

I have never heard of a Nova 4 core curved neck...I guess anything is possible. What is the month letter between the C and H and how does that relate to the production date of the car. Is the top rail of the radiator original or was this unit re-cored at some time..??? I still don't think Novas got those curved neck units...but ya never know

the radiator which is pictured came out of my 69 nova L-78 auto car, it is an original drive train car that is dated 07D. i believe the motor has one 840 and one 691 head, both F-9 dated, interestingly enough the motor came with a B dated 499 distributor.

i forgot to mention that from the pic's it appears that the radiator is C dated, does the top piece on the radiator or mounting brackets on the side of the radiator appear to be nova or camaro?

Alan, I think you mean 291 head....so what's the date stamp letter on the 4 core radiator..???

you're right about the head number...
the letter code on the radiator appears to be a c from the pic, it is a little bit blurry.

**WILMASBOYL78** · #69 10-10-2008, 07:12 AM

C would equal March date...
