    I'm in the process of building this 3 window coupe, Powertrain is 351w coupled to a 6 speed Tremec trans.
    I need a good quality radiator. I currently have a Walker in my 34 which overheats during Texas summer heat.
    Does anyone have good experience with aluminum verses copper and brands. I have to move the radiator forward 2 inches as I have not recessed the firewall.

    I'm happy with my aluminum Griffin. Never an overheating problem with my near stock sbc 400 and these engines have a reputation for running hot because of their siamese cylinders. 68k miles and 25 years. '37 sedan. I have a transcooler in the lower radiator tank and I run A/C.
