I am need the same thing. My radiator had a bunch of buildup on the cores. I had the radiator shop clean it out and now it leaks.

I will be towing a lot this summer and need the best radiator possible.

I've seen one, it was made by Griffin Radiators.

Is that the best? Or is there better?

Griffin makes a good product from what I've heard. Griffin and BeCool are the two brands that seem pretty popular with hot rodders.

Why is aluminum better than copper? I'm just curious.

Better heat dissipation ....and lighter but costs more.

I've ordered from Champion Radiators for a couple of my Mopars. They are reasonable in costs but am not sure if they make or sell for our trucks.

Could always check their website.

Griffin is the best, expensive though! I went with a copper spectra, I wish I would have went with a Vista Rad, oh well.

local shop here in the phoenix area, Davis radiator makes very nice products, but like most things you pay for it.

I have checked out all my options, including a Griffin, I decided to go with a copper factory replacement rad, If she gets too hot this summer I will get the griffin! They cost just a few $ more than I can spend, so :o

How much was the Griffin? I checked the website and got the part number but no price.

Summit has them for $651.99.
