ok, so my 350 is very mild. i bought a 28x16.5 aluminum universal rad from jegs. heres the spec page http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS/555/52000/10002/-1?parentProductId=752961

i will have a trans cooler on the front of this. and im running an electric fan as a puller on the back of the rad.

will i have any problems cooling my v8?

this was the only size they sold that had the height i needed.

thanks
 
What size and CFM is your fan, if you can't get air across the coils to cool the coolant down, it doesn't matter how big your radiator is, there are a few of us using the stock 4.0L radiator and not having problems...

I'll check on the fan. It's a stock 91 suburban with the 5.7. So I think it should be good. Ill check it out.
