Will the stock three core work?

[Gnarkill]

I bought a 1968 Bronco with a 351 . Now ive got almost everything in the engine exept the radiator. I barley have any money and dont want to spend 500$ on the aluminum one. Will the stock 3 core cool off the engine very well?

Yes, I ran mine for years with no problems. If she heats up the old 3 core radiator might need to be boiled out. There are also many other things that can cause over ehating problems but first give it a try and see how she runs! Let me know how it goes...

I took mine toa radiator shop and for 60 bucks had it dis-assembled, reamed, and re-soldered.

Worked great after that.

A stock 3 core should do just fine as long as you use a shroud between it and the fan. You might also go to someplace like Autozone and for about $35.00 pick up a transmission oil cooler to add infront of the radiator. Cooling the transmission fluid this way cuts the heat way down and if that isn't enough add an engine oil cooler.

Good luck,
