Greetings all. I have a Cortez, the Steel precursor to a GMC. Same drivetrain, 455 Olds, Turbo 425, 3.70 final Drive from Applied, etc. Need a new radiator as a new Modine core appears to be made of unobtanium and a custom replacement core is very pricey. Jim Bounds replacement won't fit/work without major new fabrication. I also use the Applied/Tom Pryor MB electronic fan clutch fan and I'd like to keep that. I've seen that some folks are adopting CarQuest Part No. 733730 aluminum radiators from GM small trucks but all the one's I've found are 2-row. Is anyone using a 4-row version of the same radiator? If not, is the 2-row sufficient. Thanks in advance for your consideration.
