This might be a really dumb suggestion. But could you flip the rad upside down? Putting the inlet and outlet on the right side. I don’t know where the cap is or if there is a drain petcock. But looking at Toyanvil’s pic post, it looks possible. I guess this would put the outlet on the wrong side. But on my Crown Victoria the lower hose runs from one side to the other.Yes, it is the hot water line. However, the radiator is a cross flow with an internal partition. Water enters at the top left, flows to the right, then drops into the bottom half and flows back to the left and the outlet. I don't think it would operate correctly with inlet on the top right and outlet on the bottom left.
