Should work fine. Got my last one from www.radiatorexpress.com, and a 3 core was a bit less, shipped, and it only took a couple days. Still, around here, if it is repairable, that is still a $25 item, and same day service.

Go for it. I am sure it is better than your current radiator, and can be had for much less than an aluminum unit. win win situation.

Im running an Autozone 3core its a good budget radiator i installed mine with this motor and i hardly every have to turn on my electric fan and my CSI electric water pump flows and cools much better it flowed to fast for my 2core to cool the coolant.A 2 core is smaller holds less coolant so your not circulating as much water.

I run the autozone 3-core with my setup and havent had a problem with it. Between that and my flex-a-lite fan my car stays under 180 degrees at all times, even in 90 degree stop and go traffic...
