3 core or 4? What will fit and what brand should I go with? My stock rad has massive rot and I am not looking to re-core it, also wanting to ditch the whirling blade of death for a solid electric unit. Any help is appreciated!
Cold Case or Champion are two popular brands. My Cold Case only has 2 rows, but they're big- 1.25". And they offer them with or without the auto trans cooling tank. https://www.coldcaseradiators.com/p...tang-289-manual-aluminum-performance-radiator
I went with the champion 3 row in my 64 Sprint - the 4 row doesn't let enough air through it without having to use an electric fan, and even then it's pretty restricted.
I did some hackin' and whackin' to make room for a 25 inch tri-flow from Eastwood and the biggest thin electric fan from Derale
Well, the car is a cruiser and commuter. 3 cores would be nice, and I plan on using a 16" SPAL fan as they have great reviews. I will be getting rid of the stock steel fan all together. Trans cooler internal is a must.
