Bill, I am replacing my 232 with a 290 & was told that the 6cyl radiator would work for the V8..Hope that helps..It was easier to find a 6 radiator than a V8 one..

I've rebuilt the top end of my 232 six and am
installing pretty much all new accessories including
an NOS AC compressor I won on eBay. Once the car is
repainted, I'll be reinstalling everything including
replacing the outside AC coils as well as the radiator
as both are pretty much shot. I'd like to get a heavy
duty radiator to handle the Texas summer heat so was
thinking of doing a V8 radiator. Are the hose fitting
locations for a V8 cylinder radiator the same as for
the six? Also, I picked up a 160 degree thermostat
but am wondering if that might be just a bit too
cool....?
Any suggestions on radiator size?
Thanks.
