I'll probably get corrected by some metallurgist with an advanced degree in thermodynamics, but my understanding is that aluminum is actually less efficient at heat transfer than steel. However, beca

I thought the original radiators were copper cores & fins with brass tanks, not steel. Copper is more efficient than aluminum at heat transfer. As for weight savings, I was considering an aluminum r
