    Never used one, but I've seen quite a lot of chatter about Champion in the past couple years......

    Agreed, you shouldn't have any trouble finding a reputable manufacture to make one to your dimensions and specs. I have used Walker with good results.
    Good Luck,

    I used a radiator from US Radiator. I have been completely satified with the product.
