Re: Help/advice finding replacement clutch and Radiator

Regarding the radiators, my experience was this: I had a radiator from the 1989 C60 donor truck, it was taller and narrower than the 67-68 C50 trucks I had. The height made it a no-go. I also had parts from a 1984 school bus and it was dimensionally identical to 1989 C60 radiator.

My 68 had a light duty rad and I wanted the heavy duty and I was unable to find one that fit. I ended up having the tanks from the 89 rad cut down to the proper height and a custom core (4 core) built. It was incredibly expensive. I also had to fabricate the upper hold down pieces for the thicker 4 core radiator.

If you have an original HD radiator that fits your truck I'd recommend having it re-cored.

Regarding the clutch, I expect Napa would have what you need.
