Thanks for that tip, and I would maybe jump on that too, but they dont seem to sell the high efficiency 4 row, which is what I have now in aluminum. My current core is 2-1/4" thick (which I think makes it a 2 row?) and the tubes are about 3/8" apart.

Think Im going to go with an all aluminum 2 row, painted black for an oem look. Similar to what I have now which works good for me in florida heat, a/c car.

I just put a 22" 4 row in my Challenger with zero issues.  The stock hoses and trans cooler lines fit perfectly, as did the fan shroud.  It already had the brackets for the shroud brazed on, so there's no need to order that part.

It improved the cooling in my car quite a bit, but then again the old radiator was shot!  About the only downside I've found is that the paint chips a little easily.

Thanks for the info! Glad to hear

They're also available through this company.  They may be cheaper.
