Summit stuff is good. I have there mufflers and a few small things on my car. I would choose the summit radiator because it is all aluminum if it was me.

I'm running the Summit radiator, and absolutely 100% love it. If something ever happens to it, it will most definitely get replaced with another Summit one. It's only 2 rows, yes. But keep in mind that the 2 rows are 1" tubing! Don't be afraid of this one at all.

jester did you have to modify anything to get the summit piece in it says in the description for the fms piece that slight modifications are required but not in the description for the summit piece thank you both for the input

Have to trim the lower rubber mounts a bit to accomodate the bigger tanks, and same up top. Took me like 10 minutes, no biggie at all. Of course, I'm not running A/C, tranny cooler, and all that stuff, so my install was pretty straight up. The other thing I did was paint the front of the radiator flat black. MAN does the grill of the car look like crap with all that shiny aluminum behind it. Didn't realize just exactly how much of that radiator you can see behind that horse!
