I'm using a repro 4-core '68 Camaro radiator--same one I was using with my old 350. I still need to do a better job with the hoses. I modified a set of 4th gen fans to mount to it. I still need to fab some brackets to mount the fans (to get rid of the zipties).

We used the radiator out of a 2002 WS6. It was pretty easy to adapt since we did not need AC. Works a little too well...
Adapting it to core support.
Not hard to adapt at all, very inexpensive, but you need to ensure that you set it off to the Drvr side enough to clear the battery, and that you do not set it it high or you will hit the hood. Our cap clears the hood by 1/2 inch.

We sell a ton of v8 s-10 conversion items and decided to give our vette radiator combo a try in our chevelle.... It's a small compact unit that fit with very few modifications and works flawless, we also have a fan package that we sell with these... I know it's not your exact application but its a great option. It has been driven on 1500+ mile road trips with out a problem.

i got a 67-69 camaro US radiator from classic industries long ago. it has brackets welded to the top and bottom already for fan mounting. not really a cheap radiator, its listed for $519, i honestly dont remember paying that years ago.
i went to lowes and got some aluminum angle and drilled some holes in my f body fans. im just going to have the outlets and inlets changed. here are some pics.
