What is a good radiator for a 1969 C10 with a 292?

Thanks for your input.

Re: Radiator help

The biggest one that was available from the factory at the time that will bolt in with your existing mounts. Brass and Copper.

And a new 180 degree thermostat of course.

As long as the radiator hoses attach to the engine, you can use whatever you want. But I imagine the heavier duty 6-cyl radiators and light duty V8 radiators cross over.
