Default Triple pass radiators

Anybody running a triple pass radiator? Now much improvement in cooling?

Default RADIATOR

I`VE BEEN RUNNING AN EASTWOOD TRIPLE PASS FOR A FEW YEARS NOW WITH REAL GOOD RESULTS. SINGLE PASS RAN AT ABOUT 200 DEGREES WHEN STUCK IN TRAFFIC WITH BOTH FANS ON. TRIPLE PASS HAS ME BETWEEN 180-190 WITH ONLY 1 FAN RUNNING.I`M ALSO RUNNING A MEZEIRE ELECTRIC PUMP. THE CAR ACTUALLY RAN COOLER WITH THE MILODON MECHANICAL PUMP. HOPE THIS HELPS...

Thanks for the input. I need a new radiator for my T/A and would like to get the temp down some, especially on these 95 to 100 degree days we have in Florida. Also, it would probably help at the track when I want to make as many passes as I can on test and tune night or at a bracket race.

Why you might not want to use double/triple pass rad, here:

I have a U.S Radiator triple cool radiator in my Bonneville and have been very satisfied. I couldn't get the thing to run cool until I installed it.
