Can a 4 core curve neck radiator be correct for a L78 w/manual. From what I've read it should be 3 core straight neck.

I'VE SEEN L78 CAMAROS WITH 4:10 AXLE RATIO HAVE THEM WITH CURVED NECKS, MY WHITE/RED L78 WAS A 4:10 CAR AND THAT WAS A 3 ROW STRAIGHT NECK. DEFINITELY AN INTERESTING TOPIC.... KP

My car is 10/68 LA built car and it has a 4-core manual straight neck radiator. Is that a possibility?

It should be a straight neck 3 core.
My rad article is http://www.camaros.org/coolingsystems.shtml

Mark,
That sounds like the 68 service rad.
