Re: [old-chevy-truck] Re : Radiator Source
Hi Nate, thanks. I think I am going with an aluminum radiator, the heat transfer properties of aluminum are an asset in my opinion. And since the truck has been already modifies I am not going for an original appearance under the hood. I do have the stock '51 3100 radiator, it's a 2 row and looks to be in good condition, will probably get it pressure checked and find someone who needs a stock one. thanks, Don Fiftyone5window [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Ole Chevy and GMC trucks rule!

[old-chevy-truck] Re : Radiator Source
US Radiators are good stuff . Look up your truck by application then there's scads of info there , just right click to open in new tabs . In general , brass radiators last longer than do aluminum ones . Aluminum radiators cool much better *but* you have to keep after the routine servicing , few do this so in a few years they develop pinholes . The stock AD brass radiator has three rows and can easily handle your SBC engine's heat , we used them on 500 C.I. Caddy engines in the 1970's , in the Desert and never any overheating . That being said , I had a custom 4 row radiator built for my '49s 235 as I prefer brass , if you're building a Hot Rod , look hard at the aluminum ones , they're hard to beat & look nice to boot . -Nate fiftyone5window@... wrote: > > > > > OK, checked both their sites, then checked with Classic Industries - they > claim their 4 row radiator # AL80071AND is by US Radiator, and appears to > be about 1/2 the cost - but no specs available that I can find.?? > > Anyone with some pros and cons on radiators ? > > thanks again, Don > Fiftyone5window > > > > > Ole Chevy and GMC trucks rule!
