Re: What radiator to use in 65 chevy ls swap

I used a Be-Cool, with the top hose outlet on the drivers side. Made hose out of Stainless tubing.

Re: What radiator to use in 65 chevy ls swap

I'm using a direct fit Griffin LS swap radiator for 60-66 c10s. It comes with an aluminum shroud and electric fans.

That looks good Jer64. Where did you get it and what did it cost?

Requesting part number(s) and if it was a direct fit.

Looks to me you had to refabricate the top bracket and thus assuming bottom brackets too?

this isn't this radiator is it?

Re: What radiator to use in 65 chevy ls swap

Your link didn't seem to work, but I got it thru Travis at Azproperformance. The core was a little thicker than stock so I did make upper and lower brackets for it but other than that it fits pretty good. Has a nice port for the steam vent built in so all the hoses look pretty clean

Re: What radiator to use in 65 chevy ls swap

I put a Griffin in my 65. Very nice radiator. Entire radiator, core and all made here in SC.

Here is a link to the install.
