It is. I remember some discussion about this when the "slant" of the
radiator changed; apparently the older ones were laid back and that was
even better for confusing radar guns.

Here's a pic of my 86 radiator. If you want me to take the shroud off,

This is a closeup. It's under the shroud where it says "catalyst"

Farther out view so you can see it in relation to the horizon.

It's clearly vertical.
