Question Griffin Radiators in use much on Pontiac's?

Greetings everyone. While looking through my Summit catalog I came across the Griffin radiators. Applacations for Chevy And Ford, but didn't see any for Pontiac. Prices seem fair, so do they get used on the 64 to 67 A bodies much? I'm looking for one to cool the 455 in my 66 LeMans. The price looked OK, but I wanted to know what others thought. And, if there was a part number for the 66 Lemans / GTO that would fit right in and work like a champ? Any other advise is also welcome of course. Just keep in mind I'm looking for a good value but one that works well.

I called Scott @ Summit about Griffins musclecar rads,they have the tranny coolers in the bottom.I believe there was a correct fit for my '66 GTO and the price was a little over $400.Sounded good!

I had one in my '72 Buick GS-X clone to cool my 462ci motor.
I thought the quality of the radiator was very good, and it cooled much better than the 4-row Modine radiator I had in it before.

My Griffin was $189.00 back a few years ago when I got it from Jegs. Make your own brackets.
