OK, planning ahead hopefully I'll be ready for radiator soon. Looking for 2 row 1" tubes. I don't need that much cooling right now but future plans include a stroker. What does everyone like?
 
After running a 4 row Fluidyne radiator for a year before electrolysis won out, I changed it for a two row from Engineered Cooling Products.

I have been running this radiator for a couple years and am very happy with it. I live in a HOT climate and during the summer we have a big cruise that lasts for a couple hours at 5mph in 90-100 degree heat...car never gets hot. Motor is an injected 302 putting out close to 400Hp
 
Northern from universal parts. I've used it on both a vintage Paxton equipted GT350 & my current K code. When the K code was stock I didn't need the extra cooling. when I added an a/c, I still didn't need it, although the engine did run about 15 degrees hotter. But the tipping point was a set of four 48 IDA Weber carbs. Then I did have an overheating problem due to the extra HP. I installed the Northern aluminum radiator that had been gathering dust on my parts shelf. The temperature went back to the pre a/c levels.

Yes for Northern. That's what I installed in the 68 and it kept the Cleveland at a perfect temp.
 
I have a northern in my 66. Excellent cooling for my 5.0 330 hp. I bought it from summit racing. It is a sum.it brand direct fit for 65-66 made by northern.
