Finally recieved my Modine radiator that was specially ordered two weeks ago. Now that I have it and have looked at it, I have found that it is not aluminum! I was told by Modine and by Napa that it would be an aluminum one. Now when I call them to ask them what is up with this, they tell me that Modine does not make an aluminum version for "my application"! And, to top it all off, they want a 10% re-stock fee cause it was specially ordered! :mad: I need an aluminum radiator and don't care who makes it. My stok one is shot and here in Southern CA, the heat is a little intense, espically when I take a trip out to Death Valley. I know I can get a 4 row brass/copper one but would rather go with a 2 or 3 row aluminum one. Any help to point me in the right direction is appreciated. Thanks!

i think you can get a universal one from summit. but you will have to fab up some way for it to bolt in. either from becool or summit brand

Bought the Howe from summit - and swear by it! Measure your hole and buy the biggest one you think will fit. Also get the 24lb cap from them. 230$ to the door and a few nights after work I could finally drive my truck without it overheating for the first time in three years!
I ended up modifying one of the hood cross braces to clear the left hand cap (vs. the stock center one) and I'm going to have to modify the right hand straight out inlet to clear my OBA pump. But again TOTALLY WORTH IT!
