Re: 68 needs new motor, should I replace the radiator?

You can find a radiator shop and have it cleaned. The brass radiator is the best you can get these days compared to the plastic tank and aluminum core. When I worked in a shop that was one thing we always did when replacing a new engine. We replaced all of the hoses also. I found running a 160 t stat thru break in helped from overheating in a new engine.
