Hi all,
I have a 1991 Chevy Blazer LS Gen III swap. Currently a champion radiator 4 core aluminium and lasted about 3 years but have a substantial hole that is beyond repair. I was wondering if anyone had a opinion on different brands. Are there better ones than others? Your thoughts and thank you.
 
I don't have personal experience from swaps, but here is some info guys just shared about radiators with one who did the swap and was disappointed in Griffin and is trying Champion now:

Thank you I am going to go with Champion that is what I have now. The reason I have a leak is due to initial instalation it was not secure and bounced around while four-wheeling. Again thanks for sharing.
 
Have you braced the steering box area? I know a guy or two in here had radiator issues because of the frame cracking at the steering box or just bending there when the more powerful engines would tweak it or terrain would twist up the frame.

I know they did add a brace but good call I am going to take a look at that I didn't initially look that close but I need to get under there and inspect. It never ends....but I love the damn thing. Thanks again.
