I switched to a Ron Davis with in integrated Oil and P/S cooler and couldn't be happier....racing in 90+ temps never approaches "hot". Nice workmanship....

I've had a Ron Davis before and it was great. Wouldn't hesitate to use them again. It cooled very well and efficiently which says a lot due to the fact I live in Texas where the summer temps are the equivalent to hell. However, I just ordered an AutoRad last week because I wanted the cool Core support and ordered an intercooler too with the A/C condenser and love how the mount everything all together nicely. Anyone got any stories...good, bad or indifferent about their AutoRad.

The Griffin I installed in my '66 Chevelle w/ LSA started leaking from multiple places after just two years. Just installed an AFCO radiator to replace it. The fan shroud on the Griffin was a better design but the AFCO radiator is much more efficient at shedding heat.

My Griffin is leaking. This is the second one in 4 years with minimal driving. The first was replaced by Summit as a warranty claim. Now, I'm back to square one.

I'm in the same boat with Griffin, mine just started leaking at the upper corner where the tubes are bonded to the end tank. Hopefully Summit will help out, I have had it installed for just over 2 years.

I went through three Griffin radiators in 4 years. I'll never buy another nor recommend one. I replaced it with a triple pass from Jegs. So far so good but time will tell.

I’ve done a lot of researching on radiators. That’s funny you mentioned entropy that you pointed out. I was planning on going with them also. I want USA made.
It seems a lot of companies like griffin are going overseas, and I’m reading “a lot ”of bad reviews on them. But I guess they used to be a lot better years ago. Seems quality has really gone down.

Entropy has a lifetime warranty. I got for my 69 LSA project. It’s made very well and the fans seem to be very powerful.

Using a Cold Case in my 461 BBC 69 Camaro. The radiator brackets locate the radiator 5/8" further back than the stock radiator, seems to be the only complaint many users have had. I had my brackets cut off and re-welded same as factory radiators. Otherwise really nice quality and customer support. It has two tubes that are 1-1/4" which is pretty impressive.

Works fine but I suspect my fans could be more powerful.-Mike
