Smile Changing to 2 row full alluminum radiator 96 accord

Hello HAF. I am not sure if this is the correct section as to where I should post this, please transfer by all means if Im wrong in posting this here.


So here goes, I have a 1996 honda accord lx 4cyl a/t owned it for about 3months now, i am thinking of replacing my radiator since I will be using the car for long trips and thinking it might help the cooling system on my accord. Btw, the radiator on the car now works fine (no cracks nor leaks). Im just not sure if the single row rad cAn take the beating of long trips. Please advice on this matter. Anything i can do to get the cooling system work better? Is changing the rad to 2rows will really help? I already found a supplier for the specific part that comes with a built in oil cooler for the trans.

Any suggestions/comments would really be appreciated.

Thanks

duel core rad will help if you were moded and need the extra cooling or if you need room and run a duel core single rad if you need the space for a turbo

Thanks for the reply sir. My accord is all stock, even the intake is stock lol no engine mods, i just wanted to get that extra cooling to help aid the trans and engine cooling system for long trips (500-750 miles one way). Is it a good idea to swap for a bigger rad or should i just stick with my oem rad? I wanted to know if it will be a good investment for the car in the long run, mileage is 182+++
