Will a '70 Challenger radiator work in a '69 Charger with a 383? :shruggy:

Depends on whether the Challenger had a big block or small block engine. As far as the mounting holes I believe they are all pretty much the same but typically the small blocks have a different inlet/outlet configuration than the big blocks.

Ok, just asking because I have a '70 Challenger rad in my Charger. From what I know, its from a big block.

It should work, but the shroud is different.

You want one for a 70 charger. A 69 charger shroud has different mounting holes. I think the 70 challenger and charger have the same shroud.
