4 core brass/copper radiator direct replacement
 
I had to replace the 4 core radiator in my burb last week. The shop said they couldn't not repair my old one. I found that Orielly's has a direct replacement brass/copper radiator instead of the new plastic models. It was only $185 bucks and is part #433369. It does not have the outlet for the heater hose and is set up with a cooler for an automatic transmisson.

Have you installed it yet? Any fitment issues?

There were no problems with the install or fitment. My custom fan shroud fit perfect after drilling two new holes. I could not find a definative part number when searching threads prior to my purchase so I thought I would share.

Good info, I just pulled mine out this morning and took it to the rad shop, we'll see whether or not they can fix a 45 y.o. radiator and call it good for a while

I have the same radiator in my truck. Figment was fine.

Where did you get that fan shroud from. It looks nice like it was made for it.

It was custom made.

I went to order this today and it is not on O'reillys website anymore....
Looks like this may have been the last of the copper radiators.

I had my original rad rebuilt with a copper/brass core.

I bought 1 when we did the a/c install from Oreilly and works great and no problems with fitment

I copy & pasted the above #, & what popped up on O'Reillys website was a aluminum/plastic radiator. Looks like the brass/copper one is long gone.
