Radiator for '68 350 HO 4-speed
We have 2 - 68 350 Lemans convertibles. One is an orig. 350 HO manual car the other was a 350/265hp 2bbl manual car (now with cam, 4bbl and dual exhaust).
The NON HO car had a small radiator leak I took care of and I knew it had an OEM 3 core rad. because I had been wondering if the 3 core would be up to the task of cooling a planned 455 transplant ? (Might just go with a larger 2 core aluminum if it isn't able to cool.) My real question is was a 4 core OEM radiator part of the 350 HO upgrade? Just noticed today that the 350 HO car has the 4 core (not sure how I never noticed it before). I knew the 350 HO came with dual exhaust, higher compression and more cam than the 2bbl 350 but never thought about the radiator. Anyone with an original 350 HO 4 speed Lemans know? By the way the 350 HO does not have a/c.

A 350HO used the same rad as regular engine GTO's; 3 core except with AC or HD cooling option which gave you a 4core. 2bbl LeMans was different; 2 core except AC or HD cooling which used 3core.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
