I am in search for a new aluminum radiator and duel fan set-up for my 67 Camaro. I am running a 468 big block (650hp) and need something to keep this thing cool. Is there a good set-up out there?

Thanks in advance

Summit has as good of a selection as any. I actually bought mine at a swap meet with a big ole single 2750 cfm fan on it and a shroud,couldnt have set it up myself any better. All I did was get an adjustable relay and bolt it all up and away I went. I have seen my set-up in Summit so I know it came from there or somewhere like it.

I am running the same basic drivetrain. With the advice of a local radiator shop and many Muscle Cars later, he suggested using the OEM 4 core with an engine run clutch fan. I have the OEM set up in all three of my BB cars and it runs cooler than you would expect and for a lot less $$$$$. It does'nt take a noticable amount of power either with the clutch fan.

The only thing I don't like about it is weld on the top. but if it performs well that's the most important part. what T stat are you guys running with this radiator?

i just installed the entropy radiator and there was no weld on top, i think they redesigned it to make it smooth. the entropy is a good quality radiator for the money. im running a 180 stat in my car.

why not email the seller and see if the weld has been removed. like i said, mine was smooth.

I did contact them on the welds and they do have a new design now so the weld is not visible.

What are you guys using for a radiator cap (pressure) and an overflow bottle?

Thanks
