Re: Should I get an aluminum radiator?
My Nova with the 427 had a new 4 row from NNN. It runs 195 going down the road, but if it idles for 20 mins, the temp will creep up to 220-230. Stock shroud, deraile fan, stock pullys, 190 stat, stock pump, rad opening enlarged. Timing and jetting is dead nuts on, dialed in on the dyno. I talked to Don at Alumatech about the temp problem. He figured the aluminun would drop the temp by about 20 degrees. I spent close to 600 for his radiator. No change at all. So I would say the factory one will work just fine in your application.
