I've searched through the forums, but haven't found anything. I just bought a 76 with a 302 and I was looking for an alternative to the 450-dollar radiator for my truck. Anyone know of a cheaper 3-row radiator that fits in the brackets?

Thanks!

Burchtree,

Check with your local rad shops, they should be able to rebuild your current rad with a new high flow or high efficiency

core. I have two of my trucks done this way, and with 195 t-stats even on the 30plus degree days they run at 195-200 degrees. Hard for me to estimate, but should run you from $250-$300.
