22" Radiator Height

[twenty mike mike]

For those of you with original 22" radiators, how high are they above the core support? Mine is supposedly the same size as an original 2949062, but the hood hits the upper hose.

If no one else answers by tomorrow night, I will go do an actual measurement and photograph mine for you.

Looks like you have the wrong rad hose.

Is that a factory rad? I hope it's not a U.S. Radiator.

Thanks for the inputs. The upper tank is an original Mopar, with a new three row core. The upper hose is a Goodyear equivalent of a Mopar hose. Challenger340, I'm looking forward to your measurements, when you get a chance. I think my core is too tall. It's not an issue of being mounted too high, since the bottom tank is a snug fit at the bottom of the core support.

Here's another view.
