    Can anyone tell me if a 63-66 c-10 radiator will work in a 61 ? Or what do i need to do to make it work? Truck has a 350 engine in it.

    Not my area of expertise, but I'm pretty sure the 63-66 will bolt right in. You should get one from a V8 powered truck otherwise you may not have the cooling capacity you need for the 350.

    A 61 has flanges that allow you to bolt to the radiator support,The later is held by a different method. I bought mine from here about 18 yrs ago. Made for 61 v8 with auto trans built in.

    I don't think it will work unless you put in some brackets on the frame. 60-62 are different than 63.
