So in '69 is the base performance axle package set @ 3:23 like '70?  

1969/1970 were the same.

Hemi automatic had 3.23/8.75/single track (not sure-grip) as standard equipment.

Hemi 4speed had 3.54/Dana/sure-grip as standard equipment.

:cheers:


So that would mean the standard Hemi application car would come with the 22" radiator just like persay the '70 V code?   :scratchchin:

Sales Code E74 (Hemi engine) added N51 Max Cooling by default and regardless of whether an axle package was added, so there "shouldn't" be any 22" radiator Hemicars from the factory at least for '68-71 AFAIK.

I've never seen one.  (but that doesn't mean much)

No, not at all. As already mentioned by hemigeno, Hemi cars, both auto and 4spd, got the 26" rad as standard equipment. Standard rads on 440 cars was 22" for auto, 26" for 4spd.

Below is info from the 1970 dealer data book and the service manual.

I apologize geno, didn't see your post.

I was wondering if the Hemi motor had the same option as the 3:23 22" radiator V coded rigs'.

My buddy always said Hemi's run cooler & I found that out after I put mine in.  Not a whole lot, but noticeable.

It's not the '70 model year I was questioning, thanks though fan53.

There is truth to that, it has to do with the surface to volume in the Hemi I believe.
