Just finished up on my install of my new radiator. I decided to go with a Griffin direct fit which is a 2 row with 1 1/4“ tubes and a fan shroud to bolt my electric fan. Everything went pretty well on the install except I had a little trouble sealing the bung that is there for a temp sensor. One thing that was nice with this radiator was that it was a universal mount for either 8 or 6 cylinder postion and had 5/16-18 threaded inserts installed in the mounting brackets. Since I mount mine in the 6 cylinder position I was able to use the 8 cylinder mounting provisions to fab up some brackets to mount my trans cooler to and ditch the plastic rods thru the core for mounting. Haven't been able to run the car yet and test it out due to our winter type weather just won't let go, but I'm sure I will be happy with it, here are some pictures of the install and a link to the radiator I bought from Summit.
