Hi 67 Beaumont. Sorry I can't help you with the alum. rad. But I do have a request. I am also going to Woodward Dream Cruise, hope to see you and the beaumont there. Just in case one of us is not able to make it, could you post a few pics of your car, outside  - inside - under the hood. Would love to see what ever you can send.
Thanks  Leo

Just wanted to bump this thread, the current owner of the 67 Beaumont that I am looking at recommends getting a aluminum cross flow radiator, anyone using these with a 427 or other big block. He has a dual electric fan set up that is not installed yet, but I am wondering if I should just go right to the aluminum rad and skip the fan set up.
Haven't even bought it yet and I am already thinking of buying stuff for it, lol.

I bought a 19x29 Griffin cross flow from Marken Performance in Kitchener for $340 tax in, has been great. It's 2 core aluminum which = 4 core copper

Aluminum Radiator Warning! Beware of electrolis problems. Aluminum corrodes much faster than brass or copper. Be sure the manufacturer instuctions are heeded. I purchased a 1990 Chev 454SS Truck new. Radiator was shot in 60,000 miles. Grounding makes a major difference in the life of the radiator.

I used a northern race pro rad, ( no provisions for trans cooler though) and bought their fan shroud kit. Worked out nice and cools real well.

As long as you have a good shroud, shouldn't need electric fans.
