NEED HELP FINDING 4 CORE RADIATOR FOR 454 OEM STYLE
« on: April 17, 2014, 08:06:19 am »
Recently upgraded to Tbi 454 ,obviously previous small block radiator is inadequate. I'm looking for a copper/brass oem style 4 core radiator. Not sure who manufactures a good one. I know there not cheap, to all the aluminum fans out there I hear ya. I'm trying to use the stock type radiator I know the aluminum rads can be more efficient.

I got my last one from a local radiator shop.  I got a diesel one for my K5 at O'Reileys...

One of the highest quality radiators I found was from US Radiator and it was priced accordingly to its quality. I finally settled on a product from vista pro it arrived today and will be installed tonight.
