Default runstand radiator

I am building an engine runstand for a model 59 Ford flathhead v8 and am in need of a radiator. Has anyone used 2 separate radiators? or has anyone got a radiator within driving distance of East Jordan Mi. shipping is prohibitive.

A shop should be able to add inlets/outlets to any radiator.

I made "Y" pipes and short hoses to join the top and bottom engine connections and use a late model radiator with single hose connections. Yeah...I have "stuff" laying around here.....
