Frost bite radiator & electric fan???

[JGV66]

Hello again.
As my build progresses i am looking at upgrades. Once again this is an 86 k10 sb 350 mild build. The truck has a 3'' body lift & I intend to keep it, I know a lot of guys don't like them, But I do & have addressed a lot of the issues that come with that. I've had it in the truck since 1988. Anyway, I've had over heating issues because the lower fan shroud has to come off for the body lift. the truck is fine going down the road but gradually gets hot while stopped or moving slow. I am also running Evens waterless coolant which tends to run hot. I've been looking at putting an aluminum radiator & electric fan kit in & eliminating the clutch fan. I like the clean look of no clutch fan and stock shroud. I have read where a high output alternator may be needed.
I'm looking for anyone who may have used any of the brands out there like Frost bite, Brothers truck, summit Ect.
Frost bite looks to be the best & most Expensive.
Looking for recommendations Good & the bad.
Thanks

When I bought my Blazer it had a new aluminum Summit radiator and maintained the factory shroud and fan. The radiator started leaking within a month or two. I took it out with the plan to dye penetrant check the welds but ended up not needing to as the cracked welds were obvious.

I replaced it with a Cold Case aluminum setup with dual electric fans. So far it seems to work well and no leaks.

Whatever route you take I recommend a well fitted shroud to house the electric fans.

Cold case has been well documented on youtube. Also has a bunch of random chinese rads.

Personally i would go with a cold case.

Either way, a close fitting shroud is key.
