Default Champion Cooling Systems Radiators any good?

Hi Guys,
I am in the market for a new radiator and have been looking at this brand I see on Ebay/Jegs. The company is called Champion Cooling Systems. Has anyone used their radiators before? Any experience or reviews would be appreciated. Unfortuanley my budget doesnt allow for one of the big name brands like Ron Davis or Be Cool so I need to find a good "budget brand"

here is a link to the one I am looking at;

Default Champion Radiator

Hi, I have a 3 row with their dual elec fan and shroud in a 70 Chevelle 383- 470hp. Been running for 3 months no problems. So CA heat can be tough and she runs at 190 all day long. For the $ so far I can't complain

I had 2 champions that sucked. My griffin has been awesome. A friend of mine had a champion, it corroded through, probably more his fault.

I have a 77 TA and I just bought a 2 core champion. There were lots of good reviews on performance years from other guys who had them. I haven't ran it yet, but am hoping for the best. Like I said, look on performance years. There r a lot of guys there who ran them in their 2nd gens who love em. For $180 I thought I'd try it

I went ahead and bought a champion. So far I have only put a few miles on it but so far I'm impressed. For the price it seems good quality
