Radiator with supercharger

Hey everyone

Just wondering how big of a radiator guys have fit with an 8 rib vortec supercharger and how you made it fit. I'm trying to fit hopefully a 3 or 4 core but want to make sure I can make it fit first before making a purchase.

Thanks in advance

Re: Radiator with supercharger

A three core can fit under the stock upper radiator cover. There is a big thread about the champion 3 core radiator. I don't think you would need a four core and based off of what I have read a 4 core might not even give much additional cooling benefit. Items like bigger and better fans pulling more air, new coolant, removing many of the items in front of the radiator, walling off the sides and ceiling of the radiator making sure air isn't going around the radiator, aluminum heads, aluminum water pump, stuff like that is probably where you want to start working.
