I'm thinking of organizing a GP for Griffin aluminum radiators. If you think you might be interested please post over at camaros.net or here.

At this point, I am just gauging interest. I have no details on what kind of discount we might get.

GW,

3 weeks ago I bought a GM ALL Pro radiator with trans cooler from a guy on E-bay..Brand new Near custom fit with 2 1" rows. It works awesome..lower temps by 20 to 30*. Now I can stage my car at the track at 160 instead of 180 and it doesn't go over 180 even after a 1/4 mile blast. The radiator was $299 delivered....way better install than those Universal fit ones when you have
Now this past weekend I plumbed the trans lines into the radiator first and then to my external cooler. Trans now runs 20* cooler on the street and 30* cooler at the track..
The only mod I had to do was drill a hole in the bottom of the radiator support to make room for a drain plug for the trans part of the cooler....I also used 2 3-row rubbers and 1 4-row rubber on the top of the radiator under the radiator support cover.

I took out a Modine 4-row unit that was 3 years old...anybody interested?

What was the seller's ebay userid? I'll take a look and see what he's got.

Thanks!
