Ed,
I had a Griffin and it eventually started to leak at one of the welds. I contacted AFCO Racing and they modified one of their standard two row aluminum; very similar to the Griffin but does not use epoxy on the tanks.

AFCO modified the radiator by closing off the fill cap, giving me upper and lower 16AN fittings, and a drain petcock. Total cost was around 255.00. Very nice radiator.

So I am using braided stainless hose with a Derale spiral puller fan. Pusher fans do not work as well as a pullers and actually create less flow when used in conjunction with a puller.
