Re: 51 Gmc
I would recommend buying a simple, new V-8 radiator from someone like Brothers. I believe they are about 350 bucks or so, but it is new, looks great and cools very well. Aluminum is so expensive.

Re: 51 Gmc
I bought my aluminum rad fron Ron Davis, Summit also sells alum rads for around $200. I mad my core support from 1" x 2" tubing. I found a pic of it w/a Camaro $100 rad that I punched a hole in & had to rfeplace. I have always used a cross flow rad when I build one of these trks.
