Hey folks,
My original still radiator has seen better days. AM ordering an aluminum replacement from Champion Cooling Systems. What are your thoughts on:
1. In-Line filter. Do I need one? Am not racing it and its an original
2. Overflow talk?
3. Fan Shroud? I cannot find one online

Am considering an AC soon since the summers in Texas are, well - warm.

Thoughts?
 
I know you said you were ordering one. For Me, Rather than going the aluminum route, I had my 65's radiator re-cored with high efficiency copper. It cools better and will last longer. They even took a dent or two out of the top pan.
 
Thanks @hosehead any experience with Champion Cooling Systems? Do those work good?
I’d always rather have an OE radiator but mine was junk and with the cost of recoring one, I bought a champion.
It works fine but I just have a stock slant six.
I think they’re fine for what they are.
 
What about getting the radiator with the electric fan?
would work good with AC install.
coolant filter is more for heavy duty rigs.
I always run a burp tank on all my cars.
Congrats on the car, I was bidding on it also.
