Aluminum radiators
I have a 71 cutlass conv.
just finished a rebuild of the 350 and it runs a little hot when running at high rpm.
so I was thinking of putting in an aluminum radiator.
has anyone installed one and what brand fits good?

We have a 71 Skylark with a 355 SBO and I used an inexpensive new radiator that fits a GMC van. I just looked and there is no part number, but it cost like $140, cools great, fit with minor tweaking. It does have the plastic tanks that some guys don't like.

I actually bought one that was a direct fit for my 66 Delta on ebay for less than $200. It seems to be well constructed, I don't normally trust ebay sellers, but it was the only place I could find it. Definitely cools great.

Yes i have a fan shroud. new clutch fan. thremostat is new 180.
It will idle all day around 185. I just think the coolent is moving too fast thru the radiator. That is why I am thinking or going aluminum
