Have the 3 core glen ray 26" look alike. 440 never overheats and it looks right at home in the stock engine bay.

I had Glen Ray build the radiator for my Retro Mod Car also. Hemi look-a-like. The best company I have ever used for a car part.

Most big block stock resto radiators are 1000-1300 from glen ray last I checked , prices may have gone up... no disappointments ever! Those are 26” b body ones.

I’m figured in freight and date coding

It depends if you want factory part numbers on the radiator. My 26 inch 3 core was $800 delivered to my door.

My 22" Wizard for my 432 Stroker

Fit was perfect - Quality perfect - Factory fan shroud fit perfect

Three summers later - Perfect

I am very happy with my cold case.
I would like to paint the top black someday. At least they have some intents on top tank.

OER radiator

Wizard has a lot more applications than ColdCase does. For the streetrod crowd, Walker was king, but heard recently, that they are closing up shop. BeCool is another good one. Good radiators are expensive-I guess you get what you pay for.

Thanks everyone, I just ordered the Wizard for $550 w/shipping. I think its a good deal and it also will take a stalk fan shroud which many of the others will not. This is the one I found that was close to the original, that you can gat in aluminum.

After fighting to keep this 440 cool for many years, i went with a direct bolt in 22" cold case and am VERY happy! It keeps this thing so cool that its hard to keep the temperature high enough! Completely happy! Before i could only drive the car so long before it would finally just get too warm and i would have to park it. Now i can run it all day long in the TN. heat and she stays at 180 or less. I have a miloden high flow 185 stat and it stay around 175..It has the 2 rows of the big tubes and it works great! I am using my factory shroud, it almost bolted straight up to the radiator, had to modify 2 of the holes just a hair.

Seems to be the same complaint on every one, you'd think CC would fix their jig.

Their radiators are made to fit Their shrouds, but it is so close to the OEM bolts lining up that its easy to make it work.

Kinda stupid when they should be made to fit the car they are being installed on. It's like they started with a tweaked rad support to work from and now don't want to correct it.
