Holley Frostbite Radiator Question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Already Gone** · 12-04-2016, 04:54 PM

My radiator is seeping a bit and I'm searching, thinking, looking, at whether or not to get my original redone or buy a new one. Knowing Holley has great products I stumbled across their Frostbite Rads and am wondering if any one has installed one of these in their truck. Now it says they are designed for 450/700 hp vehicles so I'm thinking the rad shouldn't break a sweat cooling my stock 350 with factory A/C. They seem to be a great value for the price. Any opinions are welcomed.

I have bought 2 of these and haven't had any issues with either one. They fit OK but not perfect. I mean that the thing works for me in both trucks. My 71 was modified already so it was no problem at all.
The ramp truck is stock and it fit but the top holders could use a little moding but I didn't have time when I installed it. It's working fine though.
They have the right connections and angles for the lower hose also.
Less than $200.00

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
