Radiator Express opinions...
Hi all, I'm looking for a radiator for my recently acquired 66 with mild small block, car is a nice driver so thinking of the Radiator Express aluminum unit item #221054 listed for $199. Any opinions or input on a better low buck unit is appreciated, thanks!

You've still got a couple of days to take advantage of their sale...

Is it known that a Radiator Express radiator is not of good quality or durable? Sometimes one needs to shop name brand, sometimes not. It would be helpful to state why a recommendation is made on way or another...so we can actually learn something here...

having worked in a industry that made aluminum radiators knowing how one is assembled is key to longevity. Dewitt's has a reputation of building and making great products. They build them better then Harrison and the same way the Air Force has their made for fighter jets. The cheaper ones have to make you wonder about the quality of the metal, and workman ship.
