The radiator in my 170 has seen better days and I've been wanting to swap it out. Most replacements have a centered filler but I found one from ACP that has an offset filler.
Unfortunately, they don't list it as being compatible with the Bronco. ACP says Mustang only.

Kentucky Mustang also sells it and they mention Mustang, Falcon, Ranchero, and Comet

What are the chances it might fit my 66 Bronco and they just don't mention it?
Radiator Express has dimensions on their website for their OE radiator...
...and it's almost identical to the ACP radiator:
1/8" difference in core width
1/8" difference in overall height
An 1/8"...maybe the guy measuring didn't have his reading glasses on when taking measurements from the tape?
It should fit...right? RIGHT!?![Squinting face with tongue :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: 😝](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/6.6/png/unicode/64/1f61d.png)

EDIT:
I found this in the MPAC and looks like the dimensions for height and thickness (depth?) are off a bit more.
