Glen-Ray Radiator out of Wausau, WI has the best but I am sure you mean aftermarket not reproduction.
The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

I put an OER from Classic Industries in my 70' Charger last summer. Looks just like the OEM factory radiator but it just doesn't have the tank numbers stamped on top. Everything bolted right up as needed & hose location were in the correct positions as well. My car also will now idle all day in Woodward traffic and not overheat. I am happy with it so far.
I had a complete custom radiator made for my 70' Challenger to support the 1000 HP on the street. It has a custom made shroud & dual electric fans incorporated in it. I had them try to keep the Mopar look & had them add the -20 weld bungs for the AN fittings for the upper & lower hosed to keep with my "race car but looking kind of stock theme".

That doesn't look anything like a factory radiator. To the OP, if you want one that look just like the original, call Glen Ray, but I'm not sure if they make all of the different styles that Chrysler used.

But agreed on vendor Glen-Ray, but expect to spend $$$$ if the best is what you want Mike

As mentioned Glen Ray is the source for the 100 factory look but not everyone can spend $1500.00 on just a radiator.

It's not a show car, just a survivor/driver. I don't like the flat topped style like 6PKRTSE posted.
One Magnum I had had one, not sure where it came from.
I'll try these listed, thanks. I was just showing the rad in my Challenger as another option or comparison. The rad in my Charger is much closer to OEM.

I'll try these listed, thanks. Are you looking for ribs in a square top? or are you asking about a bubble top (aka round top) tank?
