Just installed a 2 row Griffin Aluminum radiator. My car's been running hot since H/C/I install. I first replaced the stock one row with a 3 row replacement off e-bay. Worked fine until 90 degress or so and then the temp would creep to 215, even 230 once!!
So far, so good, had the car idle for 20 minutes with A/C blasting and it got to 185 degrees, I'll be beating on it this afternoon and will report back after that.
As for install, this was their universal "Ford" style 31"X19," $165 at Barnett Performance in atlanta. It literally dropped in with minor bending to the top brackets-no big deal. The "drop in replacement" was $350, not all worth it.
