Frogger2662 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Anybody have a brand reccomendation for a good 2 core aluminum radiator? 5.0 with A/C and auto transmissons. Found a few brands just wondering about qaulity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gsmblue Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I have had a Spectra CU560 unit in for a couple of months now. It went in easy and it works. Nothing flashy. There are better looking units out there for sure, I just didn't want to spend out for one :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kramttocs Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Thanks. Will the factory shroud still work? I picked up a 3 row for the 460 awhile back off eBay. Haven't tried it yet so can't speak to the performance but quality is good. There is a 'brand' name in the aluminum ones that I can't recall now but I called them after seeing the other listings that looked identical and they told me theirs were all made overseas now so I figure they are all the same. The one I bought came with an aluminum cover/shroud with two electric fans in them for a few dollars more. Not planning to use them with the 460 though.

Champion is one I have been eyeing, but have no experience with them. https://www.championradiators.com/Ford-F-series-truck-radiator-1980-1984 You can find them on Amazon and Jegs and such.

Yeah - that's them. They do have the best warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
