Looking for the correct part number for a 1972 351 cleveland 2v, AT,PS, non-ac radiator.  Dearborn build date 01/05/72.

Wow this was harder than I thought !   Rather than go to my Boss 351 and look (it has a 72 Auto rad in it) I looked it up.

Need others to confirm - as there are lots !!!

Looks like a 26" with a 1 7/8 core 
D2ZE - CA

I too had to rule out the MT code, the extra cooling 2 1/4 inch core and not the std (302 size)

Mark,

Thank you for the follow-up.  I have done some further digging and looks like the correct application for my car would be a D2ZE JB.  Would you happen to know anyone with one of those sitting around would you?  I am going to also post in the WANTED section to see if one can be located.

Thank you,
Brian

I went by the core size - there is a chance you could use ANY of these.  ???

I'll see what I can find at the shop next week.

I walked my wrecking yard and found these original FoMoCo radiators for 1972-73:
D2ZE-JA dated 1JA, it is a 2 core.
D2ZE-JA dated 2BA, it is a 2 core.
D2ZE-EA dated 1HA, it is a 3 core. - (Q code radiator).

D3ZE-KA dated 2MC, it is a 2 core.
D3ZE-KA dated 2FC, it is a 2 core.

Several other radiators with Torino and full sized part numbers on them too. (recores?)
