Aluminum radiator

[Outlaw525]

This is a Griffin 26" 2 row. Drop in, used factory shroud, looks close to stock and works great. My 472 hemi runs at 190 degrees even when it's 95 degrees outside.

[Outlaw525]

That's actually an old Mopar Performance aluminum wp housing that came drilled and tapped.

Champion makes a good radiator. I've been running one in AZ for 10 years now cooling a .060 over 440 with no issues.

While not Aluminum these seem to fit very well with the stock shroud.

Hmmm. When I put that number in on Summits site, there were several complaints of the stock shroud not fitting do to the mounting studs being placed wrong. One of the people who had a bad result is a known heavy Mopar gent down in San Diego county who knows his way around cars.

I ended up getting this one and installing it. Did have to bend ears of drain plug a lil but was still able to use my shroud. Satin black matches my engine bay and it works great. Keeps my motor 165-170

Pictures of after installation?

 

[Don Frelier]

I would suggest a 180 deg. thermostat 165-170 is a little low.
You can actually get more wear running too cold.

I have the same radiator in my Plymouth.
So far it works well.

On a drive it got to 175-180 I have another thermostat that’s 180. I’m having the sniper tuned in the morning so maybe I will switch after that.

Looks good.

I need to figure out a way to clean up my spark plug wires. I just can’t seem to find any good holders. I have good ones that are at my valve covers but I need the other ones
