I have read the same thing and came to the same conclusion. Fingers crossed we are right.

Don't think you'll go wrong with a wizards, but you'll pay for that. ECP claims there 2 row will out cool any 3 row out there. 3 row just a gimmic

One other thing to keep in mind while you research, the ECP radiator uses cores that measure 1.25" ea. Most radiators out there advertise 1" cores that are a tad smaller, mine are in my Howe, 7/8". My opinion 3 1" cores stuffed into a 3 or 3.5" radiator would be tight picking up heat from each core around it. 2 1.25" cores in a 3" radiator leaves more room for cooling. Just my opinion and something to think about.

ECP was leading the way before I looked up an old thread here on a search and saw that they don't fit well and their sales staff either doesn't know the product or doesn't care that you get the right one.

ECP uses 1" cores.

Yur right, my mistake. Most of theres is true 1", but you can get them in a 1.25" from them. I thought mine was 1.25", ill have to measure. I used there 26" in an A body and had to fabricate a bit to fit. You want bolt in. I understand. It is a good radiator thou keeping my 511 filled almost to the top cool. I do use a mechanical fan too.

Maybe the thread on the less than stellar customer service was on FABO. I don't recall

I have really gotten no feedback on their 22" stuff that's good. Csk on here has a 26" in his Charger that does great, and just like they say, the 1" core does better than the 3 or 4 core Champion(?) he had before. I just don't get a good vibe at this point in time.
