Welcome to the forum. I assume you have a HP with a C4. Any San Jose V8 with a radiator for an automatic transmission is correct for your car. The way to identify the radiator is the tank is stamped "W-MO" with the date, month and year in numbers (mine is 9-65), stamped from the inside and read up side down (read correctly from the engine compartment). There "may" be a part number tag on the top, "C4ZE H2".

I wasn't sure if this specific marking information was in the Forum's Library, it is, under thread title
"ConcourseMustang.com Official 66 Mustang Article List" and scroll down to the date code topic. It is an Adobe .pdf file. You want page 35.

Sorry not to take anything away from your search for a radiator for your car. Other automatic K codes from your same period have been documented with C4ZE-M2 soldered on ID metal tags that it should have.

If you want to read more about the change over to the soldered on tag verses the earlier tank  stamped ID its covered in the thread below.

Welcome to the site and good luck with your search

AMK lists the "C4ZE M2" tag as used on 1966 (64 and 65 V8's as well) 289 V8 with Air Conditioning, and "C4ZE M2" without A/C. Comments?
