    Default Stand up radiator

    What's a good brand of stand up radiator to get looking to get one since the engine I have is going to have a supercharger, and I would like to have a stand up radiator instead of the slanted style I did some searching in the forum and I read that the oem will work just fine but I like the way the stand ups look.

    I doubt you will find any method of standing radiator vertical without cutting of either top support or bottom support.

    I looked at doing it on my car and I determined it was going to be a lot of work with very little gain. The biggest gain, is you can run factory puller fans with shroud similar to OEM. But, I have had no issue with two quality pusher fans and no shroud.

    IMO, put the money elsewhere.

    My Griffin rad is standing up, no cutting required. Two brackets were welded to the upper support to lock it in place. I have the option of cutting the upper to slam a turbo up front if need be.









    Now you're probably wondering part numbers for everything. Honestly, I don't remember. I bought the spal fan and rad setup used locally.

    That's the way to go. I can't believe the room between the electric water pump and fans. That looks like the same clearance an impala has. Nice setup.
