First off, got one last year for my truck <- . Like it. Doesn't leak. Don't hardly ever drive my truck tho. Also, I got it from Radiator Express, Not Champion, so i got it then, Polished! from RE for the same price Champion wanted for unpolished.
Now, maybe things have changed because the radiator for my 62 buick is still about $170 from champion, unpolished, but RE wants $210. oh well. But...
If you go to reviews on youtube, you see alot of recent posts where the radiators are leaking. They are under warranty, but still who needs leaks? And by "a lot" it really isn't all that many considering the number they sell. Maybe 15 complains, and you know they are selling a zillion of them.
I have to buy another one, and even tho they seem to be generally recommended on this site, both by me and others, i am wondering if anyone on this site has had bad luck with them. The welds all look pretty good to me on mine. I am not using the trans cooler tho, but welds on those bungs look great to me as well. Just wondering, as there are no reviews for Champion on this website's company Reviews.
