Glen-Ray is about the best there is if OEM appearance matters.

Champion 26" 3 row core. Factory shroud needed a "filler strip" to seal perfectly instead of O.K. Not a factory look but priced right .

US radiators make a 26" copper brass tripple pass 4 row with a high number of fins that is super nice...

I've had an ECP in my small block Challenger for two years with no issues.

Your asking for the BEST, there's only one choice Glen-Ray, yes it will be "expensive", but quality, fit and finish usually are...
