Dimensionally, 28-29 radiators are different from 30-31. I would think you would fight problems with upper radiator hose alignment, radiator shell alignment, and hood alignment if trying to use a 28-29 radiator with a 30-31 body. I would think the top of the radator tank would be visible from the front of the vehicle due to the different core dimensions.
