Which radiator, Griffin 6-582AE-BAX or BeCool 62015??
Hey guys I need some input from any of you guys that own a Griffin or BeCool radiator. I am at the point were my stock radiator cant keep up with the motor. Shortly I will be buying either the Griffin 6-582AE-BAX or the BeCool 62015. The only difference that I can see between the two is that the griffin has 1.25” tubing for its two cores and the BeCool has 1” tubing for its two cores. They both cost about the same. If any one of you guys have had any experience with these radiators please let me know. Thanks you guys.

If the fin and tube areas the same size or close you would
want to go with the larger tube size.
I'm running the big Griffin with the heater neck and
AT cooler, works great

Well I just got the griffin radiator (p/n 6-582AE-BAX) in today and Ill be installing it tomorrow. Hopefully I don’t run into any large problems. I know that some people ran into some problems but I don’t have any problems doing some fab work to get it to fit. Anyways Ill let you guys know how it turns out.

Well it took me a fairly long time to get that damn radiator in but its in!! I had to do a little bit of cutting but nothing too major. But all I have to say its a damn tight fit! O yah after I put that radiator in I drove it somewhat aggressively (I still only have about 400 miles on the motor) but the temp didn’t come up. Its a great relief!!
