Well today I decided to clean out my work shop storage closet moved my Cuda back so I would have room after I was done I noticed water on the floor, Damn my water pump is weeping so gotta fix that I decided while I got the car apart i'll replace the radiator due to the green corrosion looking stuff getting worse, I had no idea finding a stock replacement radiator would be this difficult. I found I place that guarantee exact fit stock replacements, I would go with an aftermarket alum radiator but I don't want a bastardised fit that ends up costing me a grand. Any suggestions would be welcomed.
 
Doesn't member GTMopar have an OE radiator for sale here for $75?? Check the classifieds!! Geof
 
I saw a thread on those went to their website unsure what I should get, I really would like a direct fit [small mods don't bother me] worried about hose location ect.
 
Having installed a Champion Rad in my 68 Dart I can tell you that they are as close as you will get in they aftermarket. They fit really well! They have hose locations for both early and later water pumps so that is not a problem
 
Thanks gonna have to wait till I get some home repairs done first, unfortunately my toys are not as important as that is. I am gonna replace the water pump tho.
 
That's the plan when I remove it is get it looked at first [there's a place right up the highway] and rebuild it if possible. It's not leaking [that I'm aware of] but it's getting that green stuff running down the core in places. My water pump is weeping and getting worse I suppose cause until today I never saw a puddle under it but I have been adding a little water every 2 months or so.
