Mark, et al,

I bought my re-core in Simi Valley.  The owner will take your old radiator
by UPS and return the new one to you, if you don't live nearby.  I can
vouch for his workmanship.  He was recommended by the local Lotus expert
mechanic, and he sold it for $300, + $21.75 California sales tax.  This was
over a year ago, s some change may have occurred , and out-of-state doesn't
pay tax, but does pay shipping.

When I asked him about the specs for the core, for those living elsewhere,
he gave it to me, and I published it, but he also offered to do the work by
UPS.

His Business is:

Ask for Ken, I told him I was going to give out this information.  His
caution is that he does not know the condition of your tanks.  Before he
can give you a firm quote, he must assure that the parts he needs are
usable.  Give him a call.


Ken at:

Commercial Radiator Service
864 Los Angeles Avenue
Simi Valley, CA 93065
(805-527-3332)
(FAX 805-520-1148)

B.A.R. #AG029137 (California Bureau of Automotive Repair shop number)

He calls it a Special High Efficiency Core and they are 5/16 tubes on 3/8
centers from Modine's custom department.  4 row, 14 fin/inch, and fit the
stock tanks in width.
