Radiator question

I need a new radiator, my question is i wont better cooling, I have 76 250 4x4 390. The old radiator is a three row. I was thinking of aluminum with electric fan, or just go with a 4 row standard. or if anybody has any good idea's.

Beware of the chinese aluminum radiators (yee-bay). Not only did the new unit I bought behave just like my old gunked up brass/copper unit. Expect leaky transmission cooling line fittings (threaded spacers without any flanges). I got a new 4 row brass and have not had any issues.

Griffin makes great radiators and is very popular with the racing groups. The price isn't bad either.

No such thing as to big a radiator. Get the biggest you can that will fit with as many tows as you can.
