Re: Replacement radiators

US radiator site was helpful. They have specifications for 2 and 3 row radiators. Putting a 3 row gives me maybe a 1/4 inch clearance. That seems awfully close for comfort. Thoughts?

Re: Replacement radiators

I was hoping to receive an answer concerning clearance issues (if any) with a 3 row radiator.
