You can just get the stock replacement radiator for you car from Be Cool. Theyre a direct fit. I had one in my Chevelle with a 500+HP 383 and it did a great job. You just have to decide on polished or plain(my was plain) and if its for a stick or automatic. Radiator worked great, cant say anything bad about it.

Are you going to buy electric fans too? You can get a complete kit from them for your car.

Also you might want to consider Ron Davis, which is the radiator I have now. They are in the same price range, although I think that Ron Davis is a far better product. They use bigger fans, shroud the whole radiator, and the welds and fabrication on it are just amazing. Very solid peice.

Do a search for "ron davis" and you'll pull up some stuff.
There's a representative from Ron Davis on these boards named Tim, and you'll see his posts in the searches.

Good luck! Shop around then decide!

AFCO. They fit perfectly, look great and are built well. Got one, it gets my vote.

I have the BeCool cooling my 383 with their(actually Spals) dual 11" fan. It never overheats even with the AC on & 90* weather in traffic. Another option is Alumitech https://secure.wf-api.com/www.chevellecooling.com/46.html?psid=p28Pd4OFW0sEkO2oQlLR&sm=8856

The have packages with the fan & wiring for Camaros as well. Good following on the Camaro & Chevelle forums.

yeah, well if the price is right, go for it. My BeCool performed flawlessly, I also had the dual Spal fans on it and I could idle that car all day against a brick wall in 100 degree heat, and that thing never went over 180 degrees.
I just got the Ron Davis because it looks better in my opinion.
