Re: New Radiator $$
What is the _real_ difference between the 2 row and 3 row radiators?
Also thanks to all who replied. I checked all the sites except for the
'spammer' (thanks Mike). I want to get the more practical one so I don't
need to replace it any time soon. Thanks, Dan

Re: New Radiator $$
it seems that if you fit more rows in the same space you dont get much
improvement. Has anyone gone from a WORKING single row to a new 2 or 3 row
and noticed a significant improvement? I just threw in a single row becuase
it looked beefier than the 2 row I just broke. So far it seems to cool fine
but I have yet to try it in desert heat while crawling.
Also, what is wrong with plastic tanks? The whole radiator is only around
100 bucks vs 140 or so for a metal tanked two row. Heck if my radiator is
clogged I just get a new one.

Actually it is more efficient because the overall liquid flow rate
is slower and therefore there is more time to loose heat to the air.
Heat exchanger theory, long story.

The crimp is a weak spot and can fail. Generally it can't be
repaired. Full metal tanks are stronger.
