I've had good luck with Northern Radiator. They also have really nice kits with cooling fans, mounted on shrouds, with relays, that fit the radiator and the vehicle.

You might also check radiatorbarn.com
I have bought both copper and aluminum/plastic radiators from them with good results. Their one core aluminum cools better than the 3 core copper!

Thumbs up Re: Alum Radiators for stockers ....2015

Thanks guys for all the great input and leads! I just didn't want to run out and purchase a double whammy, throwdown, aftermarket, fabricated alum tank radiator, only to have an inspector tell me that it isn't " stock appearing". Plus I'm a little partial to having my car look correct. Thanks again. - JB -

Looks like I'll be putting my beater back together very soon. Will help to lose a few pounds from out on the front end. I don't think there will be a generic part for mine, but I'll come up with something.

A couple years ago was checking on radiators,they could get me all aluminum,the tanks looked like the tanks on copper/brass radiators,still had the grooves that stiffen them core looked like copper/brass core,looked identical except the tanks and core were welded together,if was'nt for the welds could have painted it black and passed it off as copper/brass radiator, was $80-100
I guess now would be legal

What is the actual rule? I was thinkin of something like this...would have to fab bottom brackets, and the top one, could be hid under the shroud bracket. It would be somewhat lighter than the champion 3 row, you mentioned above... what's your thoughts?

Myself I would prefer not to do any fabricating...I would probably burn holes in it lol. Ran across this all aluminum unit on ebay for the Mustang which came with two fans/mounting hardware, cap and drain petcock for $149 shipped...I couldn't resist. It isn't flimsy in the least.

Jim: Try Classic Industries part number MB2353A. It's nearly identical to the correct radiator for the '64-'65 Hemi cars. I have one in my '64 Plymouth now. I believe it's made by US Radiator.

I wonder if we can put a cross flow radiator in instead of stock up and down flow?

I understand they are more efficient..........Anyone have an opinion?
