Ok lets try this.

Does anybody have any comments about this radiator?

[wytnyt]

since you didnt mention you car type,,,year ect,,,,ill assume its a 60's pontiac
those run and cool best w/ a 4 core esp w/ a/c

[Scott Stoneburg]

looks and sounds like a nice piece. the thing i didn't see mentioned is how wide the aluminum "cores" are. my al. rad. is only a 2 core but they are 1" wide. copper/brass rad have 1/2" cores (i'm pretty sure, they might be 3/8") if his 3 cores are 1" how wide is the entire rad?

looks like someone pissed in your cornflakes this morning pal.
yes you ask what people thought of the radiator without even telling us what your thinking of putting it in ,,else any other PERTINENT info regarding its application.
so how can one answer unless it is vague?
if i were putting it in a run of the mill auto with low demand yes itll work but if i had a hi-perf auto especially w/ air then no i dont think so,,,BUT THATS MY OPINION and thats what i thought you ask for.

and in the future try to appreciate constructive comments that YOU ask for and you wont come off looking like a jerk.
again thaTs only my opinion
THANK YOU

or i coulda just told you what you wanted to hear
but is that being subjective?
and not fair to you wanting to know others opinions

Thank you sir, and I apologize for my earlier comment it was late Friday and I guess I had a few to many to drink and my attitude did need some adjusting.

My concern was the price of $210.00 seems low for what they are claiming their product will do, so I was wondering if anybody here ever used their product.

Again I apologize for my piss poor attitude.

accepted w/gratitude
i also should offer an apology and i do as i could have avoided escalation of words but didnt.
your fortunate you can have a few cool ones ...my job prohibits me that luxury
as far as the radiator goes consider these 3 things
cheap price
being sold on ebay
and these older cars really work hard on a radiator
but on the plus side aluminun does dissapate heat better than copper rads

Finally got that radiator in.

Fit with no problem.

I tried all the tricks to keep this beast from running hot.

This radiator did the trick, I put a 160 thermostat in just to see if the radiator would do what they said it would.

The car never went above 165, so there's your answer.
