Hey guys,

I'm looking to upgrade from the stock unit..anyone have recommendations for an aluminum radiator that's not $700!

Summit sells 'Summit' brand ones for about $250..anybody used one?

Even better, anyone have a used Griffin/Be Cool one for sale?

Thanks

TGO has a write up on it about a 3 core rad that everyone is using for LS swaps. just type in 3 core rad into the search. I would have posted it but im on my phone and its next to useless on the net. Im running a brand new specter stock 3rd gen one and never have had a issue yet

Thank man,

Here's the thread.. http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/cooli ... -want.html

But sounds like they are pretty risky for leaking..but I guess that's what $200 gets you.

I've still been running my stock rad and have replaced the plastic tanks twice on it, maybe I'll just stick with it.

I used to have a guy that does custom. Try your local rad place theyre usually better than store bought ones IMO

I would spend the money on one of these and not think twice about it:

That is a pretty sweet rad man. Dam now Im even debating it as when I do the LS3 top end i have to take the car apart anyways. MMMMmmmmm

Ya, that's more like it.. Looks like a better unit.
I've never heard of Mishimoto before.

Have you used one of these?

I know a lot of guys running mishimoto Rads with good luck. A few guys that has 2JZ swapped cars and a couple mustang guys.

I've ran a few mishimotos over the years with 0 issues.

They made there name in the import aftermarket scene initially but theyve been trying to get there foot in the door of domestic market in recent years.

This is not knockoff cheap $hit either. Quality products that I always hear good things about.

Ray, do it. You won't regret it! Its a lot better then that hit or miss "champion" rad you hear ppl talking about on TGO.

Ok I'll give one a try..thanks for the info.

Another alternative is the 31x19 universal griffin for about $200 but it requires a little trimming anitting than I don't want to do to the car.

For sure man.

Once you get it installed please take lots of pics and post them up!

Pulled thr trigger and ordered one of these. Should arrive in a few weeks.

UPS only to Canada though..not looking forward to the fees.

Good call Bill! You will love it! Take pics of it during the install

Mushimoto rad arrived...very fast shipping for UPS ground.

Came with a 19lb rad cap and is just over 2 1/4" wide (see pic).

Looks really nice! I may have to get my buddy to order me one (he has a motovicity account so can probably get a good price for me). Would go nice when I do an LS swap.......
