radiatorbarn.com - this radiator good?
I know radiatorbarn.com alum radiators were praised a long, long time ago on thirdgen.org (a year or two ago.) Anyway, I couldn't find anything about them, this seems like a good deal but will it cool me down? I have a stock (lowly) L03, I have a high flow water pump, 180 stat, corvette fan switch (on 195, off 180) all thanks to thirdgen.org :hail: Now I need to replace my cheap 'parts store special' radiator I put in about 6 years ago. Anyway, here are the stats from radiator barn.
Core Size: 26-1/4 X 17 X 1-5/8
Inlet Header: 2-3/8 X 18-5/8
Outlet Header: 2-3/8 X 18-5/8
Inlet Connection: 1-5/16
Outlet Connection: 1-9/16
Transmission Oil Cooler: 11-1/2
Engine Oil Cooler: NONE
Notes: ONE WIDE HIGH FLOW ROW, 20 FINS PER INCH, PLASTIC TANKS/ALUMINUM CORE CONSTRUCTION
It doesn't tell me two core, three core, terms I know. I don't know if anyone owns one, its 136.32 free shipping, so the price is right. Good enough for a stock L03, AC, 100+ temps, city driving, single fan setup?
