I have a vertical flow radiator from a 65 Sprite that is leaking. I had planned to take this radiator to the local radiator repair shop and have them replace the "fins" since that's what is leaking.

Hi John, Talk to your radiator shop about a high efficiency core. They sometimes have fewer tubes but disperse more heat than just adding an extra row of tubes. IE: four vs three. Paul PAsgeirsson@ju

I have been (and prefer) the old style down flow radiators. I run hot 1275s and never had an overheating problem except maybe 200 degrees while sitting in traffic when the ambient temp is 95+. I have

You can get an extra core to fit. My crossflow has an extra one. If you are planning to get the radiator recored, then personally I'd be re-coreing a crossflow. My experience with downflows hasn't be

Is there really any benefit to changing to a crossflow rad from a downflow on a tuned 1275? Mine likes to run really hot & I just found a crossflow setup. Should I invest in this? The downflow seeme

Hi David, $150 for a recore is a pretty reasonable price. Why are Spridget/Morris radiators more expensive than Chevys? Think volume and competition. Mmmmm, how many Spridgets you see on the road eac

Well I can understand a new one being more expensive. But as a re-core is a custom job, where you have one guy doing one radiator, I'd think that size would matter. <dnw> -- Original Message -- From
