Default Which new 3-row 24" radiator for 1969 Mach 1, 351W manual with A/C?

Hello!

My radiator is leaking and need to be replaced. (See picture)

Which new 3-row 24" radiator for a 1969 Mach 1, 351W, with A/C, manual, do you recommend?

I´m looking for a easy bolt on solution without issues and modifications needed. Is this the one? http://www.cjponyparts.com/3-row-rad...h-a-c/p/RADK5/ Or do you have any other suggestions?



Thanks

I have a 351W w/AC but mine is an automatic.

I like the factory look and a buddy hooked me up with a factory style, 4 core and I can idle endlessly in traffic and it will never touch 200°. It looks almost exactly like the one you posted up and installed without a hitch.

I use a factory 7 blade flex flan that I snagged from a '77 LTD that had the heavy duty towing package and a shroud to keep the air flowing where it should.

we need more info like how many rows deep yours is and how far the tubes are spaced from center to center and a photo of the tubes hru the radiator cap hole.

chinese tubes are 25% narrower than us made tubes so they hold 25% less water...this ain't good..

call the site below, their 3 row high efficiency cools most any engine and is a perfect direct replacement but it ain't cheap.
