Re: radiator question

.

FWIW

I purchased the Champion CC369 with shroud and dual 14" fans for my 67 BBC truck.

Unfortunately, I had the same issue as Dashman. Unable to properly secure my tranny lines to the cooler there in the radiator, I opted to not use the radiator. However I did use the shroud and fans as they mounted easily to my stock 4 row.

When I mocked up the install, the CC369 fit perfect into my lowers and the upper mounts went into place right over the weld point at the tanks on the rad very well. It fit good. Those fans turned out to be cheap 40 dollar jobs and incapable of keeping my engine cool. Had to replace with spal at considerable expense.

If you can overcome the transmission cooler port problem somehow, the champion will fit and most likely perform (as others have attested), just don't spring for the fans...they are a ripoff.
