On Ebay the MC161 is $20,- more expensive than with Champion themselfs.

I found it on Amazon for $30,- cheaper sold by Performance Cooling and instant Shipping quote.

The shipping to Europe is a killer as usual and when it gets here the tax isn't cheap either.

so i ask again, how or why does e-10 make a car overheat??? not trying to be a smart-ass, i'm curious & confused why or how that is possible. it was stated like its matter of fact that e-10 is known to make cars overheat....

Let me try to explain, we don't normally drive our classic cars very often so as a reaction alcohol absorbs water and sinks to the bottom of the tank this gets burned off leaving gas only, here is another problem a lower grade of gas is used when mixed with alcohol to get to certain a octane now when the alcohol is burned out it leaves you with a real low octane fuel which causes detonation.

Be Careful Out There Gregg

I just got delivery of the MC161 4-core Champion Radiator I ordered via Amazon.

Looks to be a good quality item , I have two 14" electric fans that fit precisely between the tanks.
I'll have to fabricate a shrouding and sort out the electric hookup , nice job for the holidays.

Not only did I get a top radiator , I also got ; ' The word of God ' delivered , thru a Christian ad on the site of the box . . . . Hallaluja !
