I have ran Speedway's radiators on 3 previous vehicles with no problems. I am going to use one on my 84 with a 44oh.
They come without mounting provisions.
I guess I'm lucky having access to tig and spoolgun welders...and a machine shop.....
84 D150 440/727
79 /6 swb D150
1964 A100 window van. Just because it has spark plug tubes doesn't mean it's a Hemi.
If ya haven't been there, ya just wouldn't understand.

when I put the 505 hp 383 stroker in my 98 Dakota, I used the stock original radiator that came in the truck.
first thermostat was getting pushed open by the water pump, truck would never get up over 165.
second thermostat and it would run between the fan off/on temps in town, and maintained the t-stat rating on the highway.
even in mid to upper 90 degree weather in town.

So let me get this correct, You spent good money on a GREAT engine, but you dont want to spend a lot on a cooling system? They go hand in hand, Sorry but its true.... And I have a large 3 core aluminum radiator in my Ramcharger with a big block, Its a champion as well. I paid like 300ish for it IIRC

300 for a 3 core isnt bad! im just not wanting to spend 600-700 for the griffins or becools i just cant see them being a whole lot beter than a smaller name company.
