Howdy all,
Thanks in advance for any and all guidance and advice. Have a 59 Burb. Installing a 383 with 4 speed sm420. Any recommendations on a solid stock fit radiator? I will be pulling a 1963 Winnebago travel trailer (19 ft). I have purchased a fan shroud designed to fit stock style radiator. Aluminum radiator?? I see some original looking reproductions that are heavy duty / dessert cooling??
Greatly appreciate!
Maddog

There are some direct replacement aluminum rads on evil bay. Just do a search. Pick how many rows you want and whether or not to have a built in tranny cooler. A good 4 row and a properly installed shroud should do the trick. Good luck wit your project.

Aluminum radiator is the way. I put one on my 56 with 350 when I installed Vintage -air. I got the 2 row as I was unaware they had a 3 row. It never gets above normal in this hot-humid weather we have been having with the air on & highway or traffic.
