Default Total Radiator dimensions

I am having a tough time finding info on total radiator dimensions. There's plenty of info on cores, but not edge of tank to edge of tank, as well as front of tank to rear of tank, and the total height.

Can someone help me out with that info?

I'm planning out swapping in the drive-train from my Malibu and I have a very nice aluminum radiator that works very well with the engine that I'm considering to for transplant. The radiator has the same core dimensions as a stocker, but I don't know about the tanks.

Thanks

(year in mind is 79)
