Re: Engine Pinging After a Freeway Run

Thanks Bumblebee.

Those are the exact ones I was looking at and will probably end up buying.

Re: Engine Pinging After a Freeway Run

I was at Summit the other day and looked over the display... Looked every bit as nice as the Griffin. Heavy duty and welded not glued together. Cheaper than an aftermarket replacement too but will have to do something about mounts as they are cross flow not vertical. I will be doing one in the 65 once I get that far...

Re: Engine Pinging After a Freeway Run

The Summit radiators I have purchased have been made by Nothern. Northern stamps their name on the bottom of the radiator.

The only issue with these radiators is the lack of petcock to aid with draining. Not sure why, but these Northern lower radiator outlet is not at the bottom of the radiator tank. They are raised at least 1.5" up which is not good at facilitating a drain job.
