If you want factory, you may have to find an old unit it decent shape and have it rebuilt (new core, tanks cleaned).

If you want to keep the engine cool, just go with an aftermarket aluminum radiator. Yes, it will make a difference. And you might need to fabricate something for the shroud.

The upper hose can go on either side, you'll just need a hose with the right bends, if you don't use a flex hose.

Are not the inlet and outlet suppose to be on opposite side // The Water pump housing was used WITH THE LOWER OUTLET on either side depending on year

1968-1969 they were on passenger side but the top one was closer to the middle than to the side. I have a factory 22" three row radiator.

While that does seem logical, apparently not always ...
