Which one? The one above (Turboforce's) or the $69 one? Not an optical illusion for $69 one: overall front to back is 1/2" smaller than original radiator. More important, core is 40% thinner than original due to combination of narrower overall dimension plus greater shell inset both front and back, leaving just 1.75" core on $69 vs. 3" for original.
For Turboforce's above, front to back just under 3/16" less than original. But core is identical thickness as original at 3", also allowing larger flow tubes to be kept. That small difference results from inset of the original core is being greater front and back than Turboforce's new one. So outer shell of original is about 0.18" thicker front to back. But all other measurements on Turboforce's are essentially identical to original, noting the end caps are slightly wider. But neither encl cap contributes anything to cooling, as the back sides on both are blocked off by bodywork. Any air passing over them ends up becoming recirculated heat in the front compartment rather than exiting.
If his appears otherwise, that would have to be an optical illusion, possibly in part because original is sitting up off the cardboard as evidenced by shadow below, likely because the exit screen is attached, and because the seam between the original's side cap and the cooling area appears to, instead, be the top of the cap, which is actually further forward and down.
