What is the all-around best radiator ?

Having read many mixed reviews of the Champion 3 core radiator, does anybody know what radiator is a good buy when it comes to cooling, bolt on ability and cost?

Looking for a replacement for my 350 L98/Vortec builds for low-mid 300hp.

Currently running the original elec fan.

I would get ahold of topradman on here and get his take. He can probably build you a high end radiator for your power level that out does the Champion.

I'm running a Be Cool and have no complaints about it at all.

Champion here doing full Time Attack duty, no problems ever. A little tall, but still fits under the stock rad cover with longer bolts.
