I'm trying to learn the part numbers for the range of radiators factory-installed in MCI MC5c buses. I have recently learned - I think - that the MC9 radiator with eight rows of tubes is PN 6G-1-9 and the MC9 radiator with six rows of tubes is PN 6R-1-28; I am looking for a similar PN for an MC5c radiator. Can anybody help me with this?

The folks from Diesel Radiator have suggested the numbers "6G-1-93" & "6K-1-5D"; however I have not gotten dimensions yet.

USBUSIN was our 1960 PD4104 for 16 years (150,000 miles)
USTRUCKIN was our 2001 Freightliner Truck Conversion for 19 years (135,000 miles)
We are busless and truckless after 35 years of traveling

I believe that that is them.
Now, if I could just get the information I was seeking !
Oh, yeah, to answer the previous inquiry, they're in the Chicago area.

Definitely do research on Chicago radiator companies, look at their reviews

Thank you for the cautionary insight; I'll steer clear of Chicago Radiator.
However, What I'm after are the part numbers !!!!
I need a part number in order to identify the correct item ... then I can buy it from somebody other than Chicago Radiator.

My 5C parts manual  dated "77"     6F-1-4   left & Right are the same.

Take one into a reputable rad outfit and they can set you up probably a lot cheaper then original. For maximum cooling specify dimpled tubes. 30% more cooling.
