Re: Aluminum radiators
You get what you pay for. I bought a Champion (chicom) off of ebay for my 1950 truck. I had to build small spacers to make it fit in the original location. It lasted for about 6 months. During this 6 month period, I did not drive very much. I called the guy I purchased it from and he exchanged it. The exchange radiator leaked before I could even drive it. I sent it back and they took a month to send me a third one. In the mean time, I had the original one fixed. I now have a new aluminum raditor in the basement and an old original radiator in the truck.
My point is, try and find an American made radiator and plan on spending more money. In the long run it will be worth it.
