aluminum radiator for a 1965 c10

[SparkyRnD]

Quite a few of our customers are former Entropy customers. Ours may not be the least expensive, but they are made here in America and we take pride in what we build.

Also regarding Ron Davis Radiators. Those guys are the best at what they do. They were extremely helpful on the phone and seemed to genuinely enjoy talking about them. They gave me the lowdown on radiators and what you really need for what you want to do. The thing is they are the best and their customer is the guy who doesn't accept failure as an option. Like big time race teams who can afford to pay for that kind of quality. I just want a decent one that works and doesn't leak. SparkyRnD I may be giving you a call. Made in USA means alot to me.

Same here, which is why we take pride in what we make. We understand that many customers out there don't have a lot to spend, and every dollar counts. That is why we built a top quality product that is made here in the USA (supporting US jobs), and we make sure that we build a product that will last and will outperform the cheap imports. While I like to save money myself, I would rather support US companies and my neighbors when and where I can.

Also, we do offer a discount to forum members (just mention it when ordering). Retail on our radiator is $450, and the discounted member price is $425. If anyone has any questions or wants a quote, you can email me or contact me through PM.

Does that include a shroud and fan? And do you have any pictures of them? Working on a 66.

Makes a big difference on getting new customers and keeping old ones.

I don't have any pics of them installed, but if someone wants to buy and install and take some decent pics, I'll knock off another $10.

The $425 is the price of the radiator, and the discounted price for the fan & shroud kit is $220. If you want a controller with relay, that is $75. Shipping is based on location, and rarely is over $65 throughout the lower 48 states.

american made and i actually worked there from 1980-1984 and still use them today, great people to work for and deal with,every aspect of each radiator is 100% in house from tube and fins to final construction and testing. been in business since 1956. http://www.cgj.com/store/product/gm-2063/

[SparkyRnD]

thanks, we'd be glad to build one for your rig

[tincan1966]

I've always had good luck with the BeCool and Northern radiators I've bought.

[SparkyRnD]

yes, we can install AN fittings, and the price is usually $25-45 per depending on what size and how much time it takes to weld them on. PM me with details and I'll get a quote for you (include your zip code and I'll include shipping as well)

[SparkyRnD]

Did you get my PM?

[fscboss]

we bought a champion and it cools nice, and fits great.

[61_FL_Apache]

Im looking to buy a Champion... Sorry RnD, it just fits my budget right now..

I have an original shroud, but I don't see any tabs to bolt it up too.. What did you guys do to attach the shroud?

[tincan1966]

The original shrouds do not bolt to the radiator. There are supposed to be side plates that bolt to the radiator support on both sides. There's short ones for I6's and longer ones for V8's

From the seller on ebay. "super-radiator "

This radiator, although the core isn't as big as your original, is an original radiator for your truck...Chevy made two size cores for the 60-62 truck. Although the core is slightly not as wide, the brackets make up the difference. It's my understanding that this rad will bolt right in your 61 even though the core isn't as wide. The holes on these brackets are 25 1/2 " on center horizontally. Measure your rad support to verify, but I have sold this rad to many a customer with the wider stock core and it bolted right in. Let me know...thanks!

The '60-'62 radiators mount differently than the '63-'66's. The '60-'62's bolted directly to the radiator support and the metal fan shroud bolted to the radiator support on top of the radiator mounting brackets. The '63-'66 radiators sit into the saddles on the crossmember below, with the top hold down bracket. Then there are sheetmetal side shrouds that bolt to the radiator support, which the composite fan shroud bolts to.

[sharkskinman]

I've got one of those from Advance Auto it doesn't fit it's too wide it doesn't fit between the frame rails into the Saddles
it's up above the saddle on the actual frame rail making the center of the fan about a third of the way up the radiator

Also my 65 top mount is longer and not as tall

I would Love to see some Actual pictures of a Stock I6 with stock radiator and fan! !
