im not really sure on sizes but i know that if u plan on really working the motor then you should shop for heavy duty radiator. take a measure of the one you have and go to auto zone or watever and compare the sizes. i made the mistake of buying one too big for my radiator slot. sorry if that doesnt help u out with your question
