Re: aluminum radiator with fans

Love it now that it is installed in my truck! It does a great job at keeping my truck cool, even with A/C running! Would highly recommend!

Re: aluminum radiator with fans

good post. Just for info we sell almost the exact same setup for $450.00 with a single SPAL thinline fan and shroud. Or $510.00 with a dual SPAL fan with shroud. ALL USA MADE. polished shrouds are a little extra.

The aluminum radiators we sell have the shroud that fits the entire surface without a gap. They fit the radiators we sell. We can have them made for any radiator with supplied dimensions. All hand made in America

I clicked on your link but all I found was a radiator w/o fans for $300 under 67-72 Chevy Trucks section and a radiator w/ fans for $1100 under 69-72 Chevy Blazers. Can you provide a link or pics please?

Re: aluminum radiator with fans

To those running an LS engine ... Is the upper radiator hose the same size for LS and SBC engines? Reason: might put in a LS conversion radiator before the engine (less cash all at once). Thx!

We sell a variety of Mfg's radiators. Not all are listed on website. I can put them on tonite. The aluminum radiator for $300.00 is the same radiator but the cart does not show the options for shrouds and fan. These are a direct fit radiator. No mods required. one year warrantee on defects. They have been making radiators for 47 years.

Well that blows goats! Do you know the specs? I'm guessing everyone with that long, snaking radiator hose is using a conversion piece specifically to mate a SBC radiator to an LS water pump, complete with different end diameters?

Re: aluminum radiator with fans

Nice price for the setup, one question: Do you have an option for a trans cooler built into the radiator? I'm trying to save space and don't want to get a separate tank.

Re: aluminum radiator with fans

Here is the website link to Entropy radiator. I came across his website through a post on the board. Dont recall which one.

Sounds like the same info/price etc.

http://www.entropyrad.com/Radiators/...r/prod_14.html

I plan on ordering one soon.
