Summit radiator opinions.

Anyone use this radiator and if so what are your opinions? It would be going in a 88 gta 350 that will be a bolt on car. How much work/modifying was necessary to get it to fit?

Re: Summit radiator opinions.
From what I have seen using the search feature. Champion and mishimoto seem to be hit or miss on quality. I was able to find a murray 2 row hd with copper/brass tanks instead of plastic for $427 local. Thing is I could buy a champion 2 row for way less. I don't want to run into a ton of issues if I have to use the warranty.

I really figured you could find a better and quality replacement for these cars without going broke.
