Default I need a radiator

Anyone know where I can get a good deal on a 3-4 row radiator? I was getting exhaust but what good is it if my engine blows due to excessive heat?

You are the man. (I cant find it, can you link me?)
Double edit, I have a 302.
Ok, I found it but will that drop into a 68? It says 65-66.

Looks like the 3 row is 221.95 and the 4 row is 375.95 for your 68 302. Just type in radiator in the search section, and 1968 in the year. Try shopping around at other vendors such as NPD, etc. We have a ton of vendors listed in the FAQ section.

Napa says they can give me a 3-row modine for 150. Sound like a deal?

Go for it. The 3 row is much superior to the old 2 row. The difference between the 3 and 4 row, is that the 4 row holds a little bit more fluid, but the fins are closer together. The 3 row should work out just fine for you.

If you are going to spend that kind of money for a brass/copper core rad, you may as well step up to the Giffin aluminum rad.
