Depending on your water-pump bottom hose placement one of the top two will work in your car.
IMO this is a high quality bolt in replacement.The radiator is made in the USA by Northern.

You will not be disappointed with this radiator. I was pleasantly surprised with what we got for our money on this purchase.

so itsa a dirext bolt on.. and how does it read on the tempurature on ur car? does it get retty hot... i live in los angeles and it gets really hot here and i dont want it to get above 190 200 at the most.. ive heard from other people to get a three row... i need help on the difference it makes..
You will be hard pressed to find an aluminum three row!
On an aluminum radiator the tubes can be made wider (deeper),so, whilesomeone mayindeed make a three row aluminum radiator, I have never seen one!
We have not had the 66 out much this summer, but last summer we saw a high temp of 205 degrees (once) at it's hottest point of the year, (over 100 here in southern New Mexico).Other than that the temp pretty much stayed at close to 190 give or take 5 deg..
Frankly I think that this radiator is going to do about as well as any within the confines of the way too small factory opening. IMO to improve cooling much beyond where we are now, the opening needs to be made larger, and a larger radiator installed. This is not something we wanted to do then or something we want to do now.
My short sweet answer is that this radiator does a damn good job, I imagine as well as most any other that will work in the stock opening, the price is right, and you can install it in about 30 mins.....
We also run a 3,000+ CFM electric fan.
