Please help with radiator measurements

Hello,I'm in need of a correct height and width of a radiator for a 1964 oldsmobile f85 2 door v8 . I want to buy a new one and the one in my 64 f-85 is not the right one. Not sure if i should go with top tanks or side tanks. I'm hoping someone that is familiar with the correct size and width and thickness has one or knows someone that has one. It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Just to be sure, if you have the original 1964 330 water pump then you'll need both radiator hoses to connect on the drivers side. Starting in 1965 the top hose went to the drivers side, and the water pump hose attached at the bottom on the passenger side. You need to check that first. But if you do have the 1964 only water pump then the pictures of the radiator below is what came from the factory. The core thickness is 2 inches and the tank width at the widest point is about 3 inches. Those photos were blurry, but the width and height are pretty clear in the photos. Let us know if you have any other questions. John
