Radiator Support Size

[Canuck74]

Hi Everybody,
Been looking around at getting a correct radiator for my car. It is a '74 Challenger Rallye with 318 and 3 speed, w/o air conditioning, which means a 19" radiator originally, part number 3692 926.

It didn't come with a radiator, and I realize finding a 19" rad may be hard so I was wondering if the 19" and 22" rads shared the same radiator core support bracket? Maybe I could go with a 22" until I find the correct one?

Thanks,
Dean

The radiator support only has 2 opening sizes for the 19"-22" rad and the 26" rad. I'd put the 22" radiator in rather than the 19" as its a straight bolt in and its probably easier to find and slightly better cooling capacity. Just my opinion

OK, I also checked in my parts manual and it does only list two parts numbers- one for the 26 and one for the 22. Funny that they wouldn't just use all 22" radiators at that point.
I'll shop around a little longer but I'll keep my eyes peeled for a 22.
Oddly enough I did manage to buy the correct 19" shroud a couple years ago, so I'm halfway there.
Thanks,
Dean
