Mancini or Griffin or...?

I need to buy a new 22" radiator for my 68 with 440. Mancini or Griffin, or any other rad. I want a downflow aluminum type.
Please, give me some good advice.

I have been looking for a direct fit 22" also, but have not been successful.  Other members have mentioned using a 65-66 chrysler 3 core 22", but am unsure if it needs to be modified/brackets to fit.  If you find one let me know!  Good luck.   :thumbs:

Both Mancini and Griffin has 22" direct fit, but I would like to know about quality and if they looks good.
And if they can handle the heat of a 440.

That is a good question.  I have seen 22", but are outlined for the V6 on the sites.  Most cars came with a 22" radiator, so I have a hard time believing everybody drills/mods the radiator support.
