I found the lowest price aluminum radiator from Champion out of CA. Has anyone used one of thier radiators, and how has it worked for you?

The engine is crap and runs way too hot but the radiator contains it way past the capability of the gauge. The radiator is a bolt in fit too. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall | | Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 | ....haven't used them. But I have done business with Caparadiator out of N.Y. and was happy with them. I don't know if they have an original bolt in though. I was hunting Aluminum street rod for my 37 and they had the best "at the time".
Have you priced JimCArter with our stovebolt discount?? The one they sell for the AD is really a 4 core Desert Cooler Radiator but not sure about the prices these days. Just giving idea's.

Delivery was a little long though, but worth it. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2008 Posts: 101 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Nov 2008 Posts: 101 | Yelostn78 - was the Bowtie Bits radiator analuminum hot rod type, or was it a copper radiator for that price?

Is Bowtie Bits the most economical?
