Does anyone know anything about the Granatelli radiators? Quality? Do they cool good? Will they fit w/o modification?

Jegs has them for $299 and they look pretty nice.

That radiator looks cool...I've experienced a few Granitelli parts and the quality was poor...I have never experienced anything with their radiators though...

Summit have the FMS 8005C aluminum radiator for $247.95...You can't go wrong with FMS stuff...

I was thinking of getting the FMS radiator. How does it compare to some of the other aluminum radiators out there?

Are they a direct fit? I have heard of problems (w/ the Summit radiator) with the AC lines clearing.

both rads. were 31 by 19 inch, and i had no problems. and im sure if the radiator did have MINOR fitment probs, so what, you could easily fix that.

I have a "direct fit" F.M.S. 3 row aluminum radiator for $185. I removed it a couple days ago from a running 92GT so I know for a fact that it works and cools PERFECTLY.
