You could cobble a couple of hoses together to make it work. Another option is to find a water pump housing that has the inlet on the other side. Believe some big block trucks had that. Another option for you would be to have a radiator shop move the inlet to the other side.

The hoses connections are opposite as Moparleo stated. I understand what you are referring to. I don't know what size the hoses are but a 67 or 66 Dodge Coronet maybe Charger and others of those years have the reverse connections. I think I have a radiator from one. {{I need correct myself. Here's a I think 66-67 Coronet 26" radiator. Maybe this might help.}}
