Re: Radiators: Brass/copper or aluminum/plastic?

I have an all aluminum 2 core radiator that I bought from entropy on Egay. It is a USA hand built quality unit and cost me $260 shipped. The cores are 1" thick each so it is thicker than a stock 4 core brass/copper (cores are 3/8" each). Here is a link to one of his auctions http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/67-72...Q5fAccessories This auction is for a radiator/fan combo, but I'm sure if you sent him a message he would sell the radiator separate. Many others on here have bought this rad and they all seem to like it. I haven't driven mine too much since install of the rad but, I did drive it in 105 degree temps with the fan about 10" away and no shroud on my 300 HP 355 small block(not exactly optimal conditions, I'm in process of upgrading to E fan)and it stayed cool.
