Hey everybody-- I'm hoping someone can solve this problem. Recently the old radiator in my 'bus ('55 235 engine) gave out. I went to the junk yard and found one that bolted in and was approximately t

Try a fan shroud if you don't already have one. It will help the fan pull the air through the radiator instead of around it. Terry Stellman 1949 3600 Missouri City, Texas Hey everybody-- I'm hoping s

Did you put the thermostat back in? Did you run the truck up to operating temp then check the coolant level in the radiator... should be a couple inches below the cap or top...refill if found lower.

Mike, If the temperature is staying constant, and if the gauge just shows a slightly higher temp., but it is not "boiling over", then I don't know if I would worry. This radiator, being slightly smal

You didn't say what you took your "new" radiator out of. The Chevrolet Part and Accessories Catalog calls for a 3" core for 2 TONs (stamped 3121499), and also offered a 2-1/2" and 2" core depending

My two cents worth. If everything is back to its orginial places, except the radiator being slightly smaller, Then I would say it is the radiator cap. The cap allows the build up of so many pounds of

The sure fire way is to use the block casting number - go to Inliner's International's web page for the casting number list. A Charlie Baker rebuilding article (from The 12 Port News) also says that

The best way is to check 7 digit casitng #. They look identical except later '57 and on may have a big full flo oil filter with larger hose/pipe fitting running to it. I hear school buses frequently

I think 261s were in chevy's only mainly in buses and as an option for larger (2ton) trucks. GMC's had a 270 which was probably also in their larger trucks. -- gerryrd@verendrye.com Gerald Deibert Ve

My brother's 55 Chevy 1/2-ton had a 261ci in it. I don't know if it was original, but I would assume that it was due to the fact that there was only one previous owner and the truck had only 60 or 70

I'd be glad to go talk to the guy with the bus about the radiator . Tell me what youd like to pay and i will try to get it for less. I suppose postage would add $25.? Let me know if you want my help.
