Looking at my aluminum radiator for my 48 I'd think that the GMC radiator will get you about an inch of space. You may have to modify the cross brace on the radiator support to clear the tank though.

Chevy radiator support that is several times better than the one that guy wants 222 for but I would be ashamed to ask 20 bucks for as I don't think it is up to par.
