Default Re: Radiators - should I get aluminum or OEM copper?

I'm a big, big fan of Griffin aluminum radiators. I like the die-formed factory-looking tanks. I can't stand the welded, fabricated tanks on Be-Cool and many other radiators. I don't know if a 'Cuda is a cross-flow or a down-flow, but I've always hated seeing a cross-flow in a car that originally came with a down-flow. Oh yeah, Griffin probably sells a bolt-in aluminum for your car that you can upgrade to dual 1.25 tubes in the core. A great upgrade.

you can paint the aluminum radiator black so it will look like original one too.
