Sounds expensive?? Might be worth the expense to keep the original look, if I have to go this route.

I've found fairly inexpensive aluminum aftermarket radiators, but not sure I like the look. They're also for V8 swaps, so I'm not sure which direction the extra thickness goes. I can't afford to loose even a tiny bit of space in the '36. (Already have to do a shorter pump for that reason). If the extra thickness goes front and not back, then I'd be OK but still not sure about the looks of aluminum. Could paint it black I suppose to make it a little better.
