Best radiator

I know there are alot of threads out there about radiators. Just wondering whats a good one under $200 if possible. Looking for people's opinion that put one in and had it for a while. Let me know if it was a pain to install too.

Much appreciated!!

This is what I just put in the 90. Perfect drop in fit. So far it is working as it should.

Ordered from Amazon at a cost of 76.06. Shipping free.

Love my factory radiator. With a properly running system it cools my 350 no problem.

Re: Best radiator

Just replaced mine today, Advance Auto Parts, $89.00. I’m already noticing it’s running cooler, and it dropped right in—-didn’t even have to remove the fans just the top bolts on the radiator bracket where the fans attach to the radiator bracket.
