    I really like the AFCO double pass aluminum radiators!!! Works good with a high compression stroker blue oval @ 12.5:1 on E-85! Water pump is a hi volume aluminum unit with an 18" 6 blade fan and a very good fitting shroud!

    I found a guy who sells custom aluminum radiators for old trucks with hot rod setups, on Ebay. I believe the company is called superior radiator out of ohio or michigan. His design and price was hard to beat, you might try him out too. I think I only paid around 300 for my ford truck and he rated it for engines up to 600 hp. I'll see if I can find their web site for you!
