Radiator Recommendation
I did numerous searches looking for radiator recommendations but was not able to find much (surprisingly). I would like suggestions/comments on best big block radiators for my '68, manual trans w/ac. Prefer aluminum but want something that fits correctly and looks as close to stock as possible. Thanks.

Hi 68bb,
I think the bb aluminum radiators that DeWitts reproduces are very highly regarded.
Have you checked their site?
Their link happens to be just to the left of this post!
Regards,
Alan

My 68 427/390 went down an average of 25 degrees under most conditions with the Dewitt's aluminum radiator. They look correct and cool even better
