Well, I did indeed jinx myself in post 116 above. The replacement Champion radiator is now leaking in the same exact location as the previous one - the core to tank joints in the lower left side. I noticed a few drips of coolant on the driveway yesterday, and started searching. Sure enough! I can only conclude that Champion has a quality control problem with the brazing in that corner of the radiator. I guess this is it for me - no more Champions. Not sure yet where I will go form here - may just try a parts store radiator now.
