Default 29 coup rad

Where some repop rads made too tall/high?
As best I can measure, ours is 23 1/2 in from top of the rad mounting frame to the top of the tank. I installed a new rad shell and had to enlarge the crank hole 3/4 in down so hand crank would line up with the frame hole. Also the shell sides are 3/4 in above the sills. The body was raised at the front so the hood would fit properly. Also the springs in the hood jatches had to be shortened to reach the hood hold downs. I didn't put rubber pads between the rad frame and chassy, just grease.
Are there two size rads that fit the 29's?
I hope this isn't a repreat thread
