Any body know where I can order the baby rad for our 65, I would like it 3 core and don't mind paying the extra. It seems my only other option is to get an avalible V8 rad (17.5x22.5 apx) but then I'm stuck with having to find or make a fan shroud. frown

I've been to your island twice and would visit weekly if I could. One of the most beautiful places on earth. Shame on you for disparaging such a wonderful place. I guess I'll just have to switch your legs! grin
Here is where I got mine.

If you read all the posts on this issue I believe you'll find most guys have major problems and spend major money trying to rehabilitate that old original rad. It seems to me the quickest, cheapest, and least hassling route is to buy a new one and get it all behind you. You will probably spend the least money in the long run. No matter how well the old one is repaired it's still an old one.
