Hey guys, just wondering if anyone here has or has heard of ECP radiators. They seem to make some good looking and functional units, all aluminum tig welded double core units. They are much thicker then the stock unit and seem to cool 15-20* better then the stockers. Its time to replace my 10yr old stocker and I just ordered this one the other day. I only found a thread or two about them. The owners that chimed seemed to be happy with them but the threads would turn in to USA vs China and "you dont support America" BS. The company says the shells are made in Chicago and the cores are from Michigan. People are saying theyre made in China due to the low price compared to the big name radiators but I havent seen proof. Even if it is, who cares as long as it does its job. Even oem parts for our cars are seem to be made everywhere else except in the US. Anyway, lmk what you guys think. Thanks.

I'm running the same one in my 2000. Great product for the price. Coolant and trans fluid temps are lower also. What year is your Vette? The tranny cooler line fittings are different on '01 and up. These radiators are designed for the 2000 and earlier fittings but you could always run a external cooler.

Glad to hear from someone who owns one, thanks. Mine is 2002, but I run an external cooler so I won't be using the built in trans cooler anyway.
