Exclamation Radiator question

Hello folks, I have a question, and since there are so many Radiator threads, I wanted to check with you guys what you thought of my situation.

I have a farly well modified car, I have a greedy 3 row FMIC, and right now, I was thinking of re-configuring where the IC piping was passing to install a custom rad in there. I was wondering what you guys would suggest me. I am willing to make my own support for the new rad, so I am looking for a rad with comprable dimensions and superior cooling.

I know i've been keeping an eye for Ron davis radiators, and I was thinking Fluydine in the worse case scenario. But does any of you guys that race theyre car suggest me a good radiator with similar size?

Just that the custom brackets that come with the greddy kit are weak. The bottom brackets tend to bend because they are just not as strong as the stock position ones. The way I see if would be that what I need is just any rad that has a bigger capacity and better cooling than stock. I think the normal rad as like 25 inch 1/4 of width, so I was just wondering if anyone tried something different.

I know that Griffin rads are the exact size of the stocker but maybe a tiny bit bigger. Griffin is a nice radiator escpially for someone with the stock position.

The idea of the custom setup is only if in this case the rad is bigger and the intercooler piping needs to go somewhere else. Thats the only thing about the customization.
