Thanks for the comments Brian......I also read a few neg comments about US radiatior, thats one of the reasons for this post. The Harrison is twice the money, but it seems like a good part at least. Anyone out there have a US Radiator they're happy with....Fit and keeps the big block from getting hot?

Bill...I have the US Radiator product in two of our cars...both 4 row versions. They fit fine and work well for cooling...I couldn't justify spending more than twice the price for the Harrison re-pop model...if I was going to spend that much, I would buy the Alumi-tech unit and paint it black or find an original and restore it. The 5 blade fan was used on both 69 and 70 BB Novas..NO SPACER.

The 5 blade fan will fit with the 4 row...

Hope that helps...tom

From what I understand, Alumi-tech is no more....
