Champion Radiators: Review and Install

In the midst of the car running to warm for my liking. Actually it would just keep rising no matter what I did. I Finally placed an order to Champion Radiators to get myself one of their 3 core aluminum radiators for my car. When I received the package it was boxed very well and the radiator was also in bubble wrap with Styrofoam. Once the radiator was out and visible it looked amazing. It featured polished end caps, a brass drain petcock when other brands use plastic. It also included a new radiator cap which i didn't need since I use the pressure release lever cap. The welds on the end caps all looked very good and uniform and the fit is amazing. It keeps the car at 180 degrees in the summer heat (with both fans on of course). But still to keep a 406 small block Chevy at those temperatures and with a carburetor yet too. I am overall pleased with the quality and craftsmanship of Champion Radiators and would recommend them for anyone looking for an aluminum radiator. Also there a third the price of other aluminum radiator brands so you also get to save money. Which is always a plus in the muscle car community.
