I called a local dealer and he told me that as far as the rad. size , that
they were showing different part numbers , but they still may be the same

He is going to call someone at Chrysler to see if he can find out if the
dimensions on them are the same and also to TRY and find out if they know
if the electric fan will bolt up to the R/T's rad .
I have my fingers crossed .
