Tank difference for radiator
I have a non-AC radiator and wanted to know if the tanks are the same between this and a 17 inch core radiator. In other words can I simply install a larger core and have it match a AC radiator. Are the Harrison codes the same.

Harrison made 3-row core tanks and 4 row core tanks.
Harrison radiator made tanks with the water inlet on the passenger side 64/65 and radiator tanks with the water inlet on the drivers side 66+. 3 core tanks work with 3 core radiators. 4 core tanks work with 4 core radiators. A/C radiators are typically 4 core radiators. Tom V.

Just remember that an a/c core support is different than a non a/c one.

If you are talking about putting an a/c radiator in a non-ac car, there is a kit to convert a non-a/c core support to the a/c core support. This is a good thing since a/c core supports in good shape are becoming scarce. Here is a link to the conversion kit if that is what you were asking: https://www.radiatorexpress.com/prod...230277/1350481
Not sure if our host offers this. Tried to look for it at Ames and couldn't find it. |

Thanks for the responses. I actually have the AC core support but the radiator that came with it (in the trunk) is the 15” variety. So I was seeing if you could add a 17” core to the 15” tanks.
Are you saying the both 3 and 4 core radiators went into a AC core support. |

I don't think the 17in ever came in 3 row. |

The '65 Tripower car had the AC type support but ran a shorter 15 " tall 4 row core. I have the original one in my '65, a Non AC but original Tripower car.
