    Cool enough

     



    I need a new radiator for my 66 C-10, the biggest OEM one (about half price of a alum be-cool) will work fine for a 366 BBC, do you think it will be enough for a mild 454 ?

    I have a summit universal aluminum radiator and runs about 180 with the fan on. Once wait in traffic though, it will go up to 200-220 and its hard to get back down below 200 after that. I dont have a fan shroud though. I have a 454 as well.

    I've gone to aluminum double pass radiators on everything. The cool good and polish up really nice if you have too much spare time in the winter. Add a polished aluminum shroud and the look double Kewl!!!!!
