Clois,

I am afraid that the bit about the radiator causing lift due to flow through the core is a urban legend.

Actually at any speed over about 80 mph the air is in essence "stalled" in the core.

In other words the boundry layer developed between the fins has reached its limit and additional flow will not happen.

The air will just stack in front of the radiator.
