Well this is a first for me. I have several Mopars. 70 challenger R/T 383 auto. 70 Challenger R/T S/E 440 SIXPACK auto. 73 Baracuda 318 auto. 69 Charger R/T S/E 440 auto and two roadrunners a 69 383 4-speed and a 71 440+6 4-speed. Wich brings me to my question, has any one used Champion radiators? My 71 is a 630hp brute. and i want to make sure Champion is a wise choice. Be Cool radiators are expensive........ Any sugestions would be appricated.

Sounds like a great stable of Mopars

welcome to FBBO

sorry never used Champion Rad.'s can't comment there from experience

I've had Mancini Racing custom Alum. Rad.'s in my last couple Mopars, decent price & decent quality
my current car 479ci-6bbl has a MRE 22" down flow, custom shroud
2 Be-Cool electric fans 16" 2950cfm puller, a 13" aux. pusher 2900cfm all fused, on 30 amp relays & arming switches
& an electric 37gpm water pump in a MP Alum. water pump housing,
with a restrictor in the 1" place of the thermostat, never gets over 190*,
even in 100* Calif. summers

I might suggest you ask your question in the specific appr. tech forums here
or the general discussion forum here, you'll get far more responses & help...

This is the welcome wagon, for intro & getting to know each other,
maybe share a few photos etc.,
It's not really a intended as a tech Q&A forum section


Anyhow good luck & Happy Moparing
