I've found 4-5 radiators that are cheap and fit my specs but can't make up my mind.

I can get a 19x24 or a 19x22 both in either single 1" row or dual 1" row.

There's a guy in my club with a 3.8 Buick powered Jeep running the 19x22 double row with zero cooling issues. He says it is way overkill. He is only running a crappy pusher fan he bought for $5 with zero shrouding whatsoever. It is an old Jeep CJ so he doesn't even have the shrouding in the front since its a removeable front clip. he gets on it and crawls slow on 40s. He thinks the radiator is way overkill.

This leads me to believe the 19x22 single core would be sufficient using ducting in front and shrouding and a taurus fan behind. Length and width are not as important as thickness. Thickness needs to be on the slim side to cram the intake ducting, winch, front grill all without having some monster front frame extension I am trying to avoid. I don't want a big honkin winch shelf 2 feet in front of the truck. Anyone have any opinons on this I know I am being indecisive but I could not find anything on the web that states what size/thickness rad you need for x engine. Seems like so many varibales are out there. I don't mind putting the time and effort into the ducting/shrouding and bracketry to get the smallest rad possible that will work when getting on it going very slow.
