Hey Guys, anyone know where I can buy a direct fit 22" aluminum radiator for a 1969 RR? I can find them but not in the right size. My rad is 22" x 18" core. All I can find is 22" x 16", would it matter if I used a 16" vs a 18"?
Sorry to jack the thread, Is this for a big block car? I just had my fan go through my radiator while driving and CI sent me a champion but my mechanic is saying it doesn’t fit, sticks up 1” too high and the hood wont close now. Could you send me the serial number to the one you bought? I have a 69 coronet with a 383 4brlThe champion in my Roadrunner works great. Fit without any modifications. I think they make them in 22 inch because they offered two sizes for it. Mine is a 26
Yes it’s a big block car but mine is a 73. Maybe that’s the difference. I’ll look through my papers and see if I can find the part number.Sorry to jack the thread, Is this for a big block car?

I think those might be a different radiator I was surprised they’re saying it won’t fit, I had a ECP/speedcooling one before the champion and had to open up the bolt holes a little bit other than that it fit fine and worked perfect. This champion should be for this car but doesn’t fit, anyone else experience this?Yes it’s a big block car but mine is a 73. Maybe that’s the difference.

I like the oeish look to it, is it a three core? Have you had any issues with it overheating? Did you have to make any modifications? Thanks for the suggestion!View attachment 839945I bought this off ebay. it is not OE but is a very nice OEish alm replacement rad for the money, and fit perfect! couldn't happier with it.

Thanks for the response, I ended up finding one from a local MOPAR guy for $180 seems to be working great so far, but my temp gauge isn’t work even after replacing the sending unit one problem at a time right?Autocity Classic Radiator Model SL437AT. I have a friend with one in his 70 Challenger. Can't get above 170 degrees in the heat. I just ordered one for my '64 Plymouth. $237 each.
My ECP fit with no modifications. The shroud did too. Must be lucky, huh?Try Cold Case. They are a sponsor. I can tell you from experience ECP speedcooling will require some fabrication to fit and more fabrication to attach a shroud.
The 22" champion radiator in my 66 charger had to have the bottom notches opened up a bit so the top bolts would line upSorry to jack the thread, Is this for a big block car?
