The core size is the important part Height, width, core thickness

No, they're not the same. The 5.7L diesel radiator is more like a smallblock radiator. IIRC, the outlets are on different sides.

I do remember that the oil cooler ports are on opposite sides as well. I just remember that when I swapped from 5.7L diesel to 6.2L, I noticed the 6.2L was much, much larger.
