griffen radiators

Has anyone used a griffen radiator on there FC at all?? if so what were the dimensions that you used and did you have to relocate the battery?

Biggest I'd go is 24x16, you could do 26x16 but the battery becomes an issue, as well as the air cleaner.

Mine is 26 3/8" x 16" x 3" Overall (25 1/4" x 13" x 2 3/4" Core), and fits just fine when mounted vertically in the stock unibody. Everything in my car is relocated, though, and the stock fan and shroud are gone. Pics here:

If you are looking for a 100% fit replacement, then the Fluidyne drop-in may be a good choice, although I personally feel that the Griffin design is superior.

I could make a 24x19x3 work if I used the top and bottom for mounting instead of the OEM style side mounts.

I am choosing to run a 22x19x3 with an integral oil cooler, and will fabricate side mounting plates on the end tanks.

My manufacturer of choice is Griffin, although I am a dealer for Howe, and C&R Radiators as well.

No battery relocation allowed in IT. Yet.
