    OK, CJ5 with V6... It's getting very close to the time to look for a radiator. Getting the old one recored or a repo are too expensive. I've heard the Pontiac Fiero units work good & a new one is under $200. Will be running stock 5 blade fan. Suggestions welcome, Thanks:)

    Heavy-duty 4 row originally donated by the same Corvette the motor came from, though I’ve had it recored.

    I have a 71 with a 78 231 v6, with a RX-7 Radiator. I made a templete of the opening, and messured the clearence to the fan blade, and was able to go to a radiator place that pulled a few before I found this one that worked.

    Try searching 1971 V6 Radiator if the above won't work.
