I just received my aluminum champion radiator and realized that they recommend us green coolant, I currently use and have Toyota red. I've seen a few people using Toyota red with these radiators. Anyone running into any issues? Should I convert over to green?

I have a stock rad but switched to generic coolant when I replaced the water pump. No notable difference other than cost of the coolant.
 
If you look at the Red it will say it is safe for aluminum. I am running Red in mine and i believe mine is a champion brand.

Clx16,
You are absolutely right. Just looked at it and says it does not corrode aluminum. Thanks for the info!
