Good or bad? 2,3,4 core for my 462 Pontiac in my Firebird?

I know a couple people using champion radiators and they're fine, but their fans are junk (little airflow). Spend the money on a Spal or similar quality fan at the minimum.

That said, I would still never put a champion radiator in my own vehicle.

Champion are OK but far from great. There are much better quality radiators on the market for not a lot more money. I guess it comes down to how much you value your engine. Also, a properly designed 2 row core is more efficient than a 3 or 4 row in terms of air flow and heat transfer. Again, the difference here is quality vs price point, you decide. Just remember you get exactly what you pay for!
