You could go with an expensive aluminum B-cool radiator. about $4-500.
I have a copper (a little heavier than aluminum, but better cooling) 4 row radiator. New in the box. I paid $300 for it to use in my 396 project, but I got a hell of a deal on a used Bcool.
I Was going to sell it for $250 shipped, but I think I'll do $200 + shipping. (No way its going to cost $50 to ship). I can send you pics if you are interested.

I use the GM LT1 radiator. It works much better than the LS1 radiator and really helped with the transmission temp as well. Here's a pic of the core. The thicker one is the LT1 radiator.

is that what you used on your 402? what did you do with extra holes in the radiator. how did it fit. i had looked at doing that before but wasnt sure if it was actually that much thicker, did you get it at the dealer or just buy one at a part store?? im also thinking im gonna change out my thermostat to something in the 170 range. thanks guys

OK, sorry for the delay. I didn't get to storage until today.
THe weight of the box is 26 lbs. Size is 40x23x6.
Fedex Gnd = 29.78 4 days
USPS: 31.77 6 days
UPS Gnd 30.62 7 days
I didn't have my camera with me, but the radiator is in my car, I'll take pics when I get home.
