Hello Andy,

If you do end up going with an aluminum radiator, check Summit Racing, or Jegs Performance for that same Griffin radiator. They usually have better prices than the manufactures.

Thanks Richard, I think I will go with the `66 radiator I have and put a 4 row core in it. Mainly because I can get it repaired if needed, and the cost has something to do with it also since I need two rear tires already(weird Big Grin).
UPDATE
2,000 miles on new 440 running like a champ, still no adjustment needed on valves.

Still need two rear tires :0 I better get those soon
Hi Max, uncle Richard thinks that you're extremely cool indeed!

Changed oil yesterday since just over 3,000 miles and the magnet did not pick up anything so I were good to go. Happy Happy

Still need rear tires, It's keeping me from getting in trouble roasting them off

Hemi k-member? I see a skid plate!
I am going to try some of this thermal fuel line wrap my son uses on his race truck on Max. Sometimes when its hot out and I shut car off and go out to start it runs but not as smooth, I am thinking the heater and radiator hose are boiling the already warm fuel since my line is so close to both.

Plus I slid a piece of insulation under intake manifold from back side like Mopar use to do in the 60s big blocks. My `61 Imperial had it, I believe it was more to muffle noise but might help heat also. There is no heat cross over due to the Eddie heads so no problem there.

Had two people pull in front of me Friday on way home from work GRRRRR, luckily I am paying attention because they sure weren't. When I hammered down on the brake pedal I noticed it pull left a bit, I didn't like that. So On the rack it went and found right front hose had some damaged rubbing on tire, so I pulled and sure enough you can't even blow through it. Found pull !!6917]6918] and thinking back I modified these hoses to fit because I couldn't find correct ones so they were at least 25 years old.
At Fremont Mopar show a guy had some new correct hoses and steel lines at caliper for $20 bucks, sure glad I picked those up.
