Title: radiator ideas?
Post by: 28chevyguy on May 11, 2014, 11:54:56 AM
hey gang looking for ideas for a radiator for my 28,  i have the stock but wont be good for a sbc with the tiny ports, found a griffin radiator on ebay for under 300 bucks , says will fit late 20s-30s chevy but dimensions are 19 wide by 27 1/2 tall.  Stock is 16" wide , grill shell looks like it could stuff 19" MAYBE , but steel mounting tabs are on the side and I wanted to build them into an inner steel structure (have the aluminum grill).  Any tips ideas or pics are appreciated. thanks !

I used Bryce Thomas to build mine - here's the website:

They were great to work with. I actually drew up my own diagram with sizes, dimensions and placement of everything, sent it to them and they built it for me. Hope that helps
