radiator upgrade question

hello again another stupid question from me....[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]

I have this:


it's the original 4 rows one, I've added the Flex-a-Lite fan on it.

I was thinking going for an alu one, but I am not sure exactly which one to take[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif[/img]

Rump has a failry wide radiator on his convertible, If i am looking correctly at the pictures, I believe he has opened the front a little bit more.

Anyone could advise me on a good alu radiator?

[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif[/img] [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_spin.gif[/img] around $300 to $400 U.S. I'm thinking... Good luck kermit [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_tup.gif[/img] The aluminum ones are expensive but you might come out OK if the guy's can find a decent price for you.

I see: crossflow, what is that??? is it good?

and also difference in price if you go for a universal one

kermit, check out this post I did last week.

I've got a Northern aluminum radiator. This radiator bolted directtly into the stock mounts no mods. I found it on ebay with aluminum shroud and electric fan+shipping cost for $500.

Stupid question time: Does the 4 row with shroud not cool your motor currently? I'd a think a 4 row rad should be sufficient with the proper fan setup? Perhaps it's just old and worn out like me....Aluminum radiators tend to be lighter but not quite as efficient at heat exchange properties on a size per size basis as a copper from my understanding.

Alum is not as good at heat exchange as copper but the alum can be made thinner and keep its strength unlike copper and that is where it gets better at acooling then copper

Kermit, I bought mine from absolute, Made from the tooling from the ford radiators, Im with doug Id think a four core you have should be able to cool easy. anyway heres the address:
