I called Yogi's and had it all worked out, but my wallet drove the project instead of my brain. They should be able to sell you a stock fitting radiator to cool any motor you want. They were nice folks. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 3,068 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 3,068 | A lot of vendors sell the "Desert Cooler" aftermarket radiators. I put one in a buddies 47 1 ton panel and it looked and bolted in just like the original. I think it was a little less than $300.00

Exact as original except long copper over flow tube on right side, just had to add a little bit of hose.

If I remember correctly - it was just over $100.
Thanks for reminding me that I need to take both my gas tanks and 53 radiator in to be cleaned and checked for leaks.
