Aluminum radiator

Because of the fab'd tanks, modifications are often needed for fitment.

I'm all for plugging board sponsors and such but, in support of others, I must say that my Champion 3-Row is looking The Business up next to what it is replacing here in my world. I bought the CC369 with fans. This all aluminum piece of kit is welded, polished aluminum boxes that look very nice. It test fitted nicely down into the factory lower perches and the factory upper mounts fit down on the welds just fine! It's definitely not exactly just like the stock 4 row BB radiator, but it will fit in there no problem. Once I have it all together, I have no doubt it will cool the BB.

I have a cc369 in both my 68 and my 72, dropped right in. My 72 is a big block with AC. Been running cool and perfect for several years now. Their warehouse is in Lake Elsinore, about 30 mins from me. I bought them over the counter. They have very good customer service and I will buy one again if the need arises on my other vehicles. I’m not a spokesperson for them, just relaying my real world experience.

... Hope we're ok.

No disrespect given or taken. It's all good, just keeping it real!
