I have a Champion and am very happy with it. I have a 4 core 26" in my rr. But I didn't bother with the electric fan and shroud. Just use the standard 7 blade and it runs as cool as the other side of the pillow.

i AM A DISTRIBUTOR FOR CHAMPION RADIATORS , THEY ARE GOOD COOLING BUT THEY ARE not made in the USA and the fit and finish is just so/ so

Brian, how does it fit? Could I see some pics of it too?

I'll see if I can get you some pics tomorrow. I will tell you that on mine... The drivers side mount holes lined up with no issue and the 727 cooling line hook-ups where spot on where they should be. I had to drill a couple of holes on the passenger side since those didn't line up right.

Thanks Brian, I went ahead and ordered one up, so we will see how it looks, cant beat the price! I hear ya on the mounting holes, I had to drill my support out for the 26er I put in already. Thanks for th input man.

Here are some pics:

Just a couple of other things I thought of-

1- If you had a non a/c car with both the upper and lower rad hose on the drivers side on the old rad just order an a/c upper and it will fit perfectly.

2- When you get the rad....1st thing you need to do is take it out of the box and check for twisting/wracking. Mine had a 1/2" twist in it from upper right to lower left. I had read some people complained about as much as 2 inches of twist in theirs. The 1/2" for me was a non-issue but if it had had a 2" it would not have been workable. This is NOT just a Champion thing. It is all aluminum rads that can potentially have this twisting/wracking.

Good to know man! Did the people with a 2" twist get it to fit or send it back?

I read that in other forums before I bought mine. Most claim they sent it back for replacements.

I dont think my clutch fan will fit though. You said you use a 7 blade fan on your car, with or without a clutch?

Theres a be cool rad on the madison wi craigslist right now for 150.00 with a shroud. under auto parts, black earth is the town its located in. Try that one.

I tried the the 5 blade viscous fan it didn't fit. Used the stock 7 blade non-viscous/clutch.

Where did you get that set up?

I have a champion and its not cooling my big block. Appears the tubes are too close together for good air flow. not sure. I have tried everything and now i think i,m going to have to step up to a be cool unit.In its defense though my 440s far from stock.

The fan I use was the stock fan.

My 383 is far from stock as well. 496 stroker 555hp/622ft lbs. I have never had an issue with mine. The stock 22" rad on the other hand...couldn't keep this thing cool.

Where are they made? In China?

yes china
just distributed out of califonia

I have a 4 core Champion radiator with a shroud and the stock fan in my 67 GTX and it works great. I have had it out in a 101 degree day , in traffic and so on and it worked great. Just my .02 GTX
