correct radiator for 67 442

I have a 67 442 with a 1968 400. I need to replace the radiator and I am not sure If the one I have is correct. Is it supposed to be a cross flow or down flow? What size? I know the fan shroud isn't correct because it doesn't even come close to fitting. I saw new ones in the OPG catalog. I also want to go to a 4 row core. Any sugestions on where to find one? OPG list those also but the pic shows a down flow and the 3 row originals show a cross flow? Info is greatly apreciated
thanks,
Gary

It does take the crossflow style.

Gary, you obviously can do what you want, but with a *correct* stock setup (fan, shroud, etc), a 3-row radiator will work just fine.

would that be the same with a 66 442 and a 455? mine came with an anemic , (do they make a single row radiator?) one and I know that for here in the central valley I am going to need some more rows, I think I'll go with a 4 row..hey , I answered my own question!!! This car when finished is going back east to be sold. Just gotta love these clean rust free cars on the left coast.
