I like the look of your radiator. Whose is it? and how do you like fit, finish and function? Looks like a Griffith performance fit?
Thanks.

Thank You.
It is a Griffin, when I bought it they were called direct fit but now when I look at my order history at Summit Racing it says performance fit. It is a combo unit with the fans set up for the LS swap so both inlet and outlet are on the passenger side along with a port for the steam vent. I did have to modify the upper mounts by raising them .5".
It has been in the for about 4000 miles.
As for fit and finish I sent the first one back due to poor fit at the filler neck. I've used Griffin in offroad trail rigs and they are ok. I like Ron Davis radiators better but for this application the Griffin is doing great so far.
What I've seen with the Griffin units cracking or splitting is having them mounted to rigid in these trucks as they flex so much the radiator needs to be able to move around.
