that's what I have and it works great, but it's not cheap. Look at the vendor Josh recommended and you might find something a bit more affordable.
Or as I said, you can get the rad dimensions, and check on race type radiators from a variety of sources. It won't be "plug and play" but it's not that hard to do a radiator.

Wonder what the spal fan setup on a stock radiator would do…..
I’m in the market for a setup as well- temps are unusually higher this year and figured with the radiator being 23 years old, maybe time to give the car an expensive gift.

I don’t know mine runs a little warmer with the air conditioner on and when I aggressively drive it maybe 215, 220 at the most but cools back down quickly so I wanna better performing radiator and I’m sure I’ll need to upgrade the fans. I was just hoping there was some thing out there that fit the criteria without the stupid Corvette tax.

I’m waiting for a sale and pulling trigger on the full setup (that’s the plan anyway).
I’ve run the stock setup for 20 years and managed the heat issue- overall not a major issue, but this year is different and making me wonder if something else is up.

I’ve tried doing things on the cheap with this car and it’s almost always come back to bite me.

well, I really appreciate the help. I spoke with Bryan at forced induction and sent him pictures of my set up. He said it looks like I really need the cut down version. Problem is they don’t offer one just yet that will accommodate the AC condenser. He said in a month they will, the one they offer right now the cut down version without AC mounts it’s $1700 heck I can get the Dewitts and fan set up cheaper than that but he did say the street version will be cheaper but I don’t think it’ll be much cheaper just to guess . Looks like I’ll be saving up for a while.
