Default Correct radiator for 67 396 Camaro

Well, it is time to pull out the 67, and fix a few of the incorrect things that I
have been putting off all these years. (been going withthe thought, that if it aint broke....).
i have collected the correct water pump, 4 blade fan and spacer.
And finally found the correctly dated 880 manifold.

The big item that I still need is a correct Harrison radiator.

Any Idea where i can find one?
I hear that Heartbeat has a very correct reproduction - is this true?
Or, should I continue to wait to find an original one? which is not getting any easier.
I have some harrison tanks, but they are not Camaro ones, can anyone re-configure them?

It says in the CRG reports, that 67 used a 3 core 23" for the 1967 L-35 Auto - 396-325
"67-68 BB auto = Tank code OM"

A little worried, is this going to be less productive then the 4 core I am now using?
Should I just leave it alone? -
I am not running hot after many years of trial and error, here in south Florida.
Will changing from a 4 core radiator w/ 5 blade clutch ,to the correct 3 core radiator, and 4 blade fan-
going to give me problems?
Any opinions? ???

Get the correct one and try it. Not real hard to change and if the original doesn't work for you, you can always put the 4 core back in. I bet the original with a good re-core will be fine. At least it will be correct.
