COLD-CASE Radiators - Looking for advice and user experience

motorhead446 said

I have a 440 in my 70 duster that I race, i currently have a griffin aluminum radiator, mercury mystique type electric fans with separate thermostatic controls, a flow cooler water pump. I run E85 and aluminum heads and yet I still have issues with the motor getting too warm. I can only guess that its the radiator at this point. This motor is aprox 650 hp. Can you steer me in the right direction?

Since you race, I assume you are getting hot sitting in the staging lanes and then it probably gets worse coming back to the pits? Griffin makes a nice radiator. So the first thing I would ask is what size is the unit. Is it a 22" or 26" and is it dual 1" or dual 1 1/4". Griffin makes both. If you already have a 26" and the larger tube model, then you have to look elsewhere for your heating issues.
