Questions About a Radiator

[cutty]

So I need a new radiator for the cutlass, and was wondering if it made a difference or not to go with the factory size radiator. Or the bigger one, i was on rockauto.com and it had a listing for two size's of rad's.

 

I was thinking of going with the bigger one if possible, thinking that it would help keep the engine cooler.

 

Just wondering if anyone else, has gone with the bigger size rad and where they got it from.

 

Oh yeah its a 95 cutlass with the 3100.

I got the bigger one for my Ciera(same engine) And it made a significant difference.

The larger radiator will fit just fine and should keep the engine a tad bit cooler.

 

By the way, http://www.radiator.com/index.php is significantly cheaper than anywhere else on radiators. Use discount code 40415 for $25 off. If that code doesn't work 50432 is a $10 off discount.

its a 2 core vs the 1 core factory. I didnt even know they still sold the 1 core radiator still. But yeah, get the bigger one, it fits just fine.
