I am ready to install an aluminum radiator in my stock 64 Ranchero 200.

I need an aluminum radiator for a standard tranny, 2-3 core with 1" tubes, fully welded.

Need manufacturer names. prices quality reviews for compariosn before buying.

What are you running???
 
Don,
I got my aluminum radiator from GenesisAutoParts.com for my Maverick. I had to run their single row due to electric fan clearance but the tubes are huge by comparison to the stock radiator so that it flows at least as much water or maybe even a tad more than the stock unit. I am very pleased with the quality...it is fully welded. So far my water temp with the new motor hasn't gone past about 180 deg while driving in street trafffic. It was a direct bolt in and has a drain plug on it ( some don't I have heard ). This unit cost me $115.59 and they have timely shipping. :wink:

Are you coming out to SpeedWorld this Sunday?
 
I used to have a Northern Brand and it was a work of art, and affordable ($190). I am now running an ebay special ($160) and it too is real nice.
 
Jegs and Summit sell some nice "universal" ones. You'll just need to fabricate how it mounts in the car.

Mine is from Silla Cooling. Fit and finish are decent for the price they go for on E-bay, and it performs quite well.
 
Am pleased to report that the Genesis I ordered went in perfectly and runs much cooler than my old one. Of course, it turned out my old one was clogged up with a bunch of rust n junk, so I probably could have just flushed it aggressively and put is back in, but at $130 delivered for the two-row Genesis, it was a great deal.
