Re: Aftermarket radiator???
I believe my stock one isn't flowing well. It looks like it is, but I have both fans running all the time and it still heats up. New t stat too.
I think I am gonna just go aftermarket since this one isn't working well.
Any ideas?

I have a summit one. No problems at all with it. Mine isnt stock sized though and I had to do quite a bit to get it in. I believe they make a direct replacement now though.
How hot does it get? I would get an infrared thermometer and measure the radiator. I dont trust factory guages at all.

summit rad, "direct fit" is not a direct fit. Spend the money on something better like a Be Cool or Griffin. They are bolt in.
