[Fot] Radiators

[Joe Boruch]

 Howe just made a custom radiator for my TR3.  I had the same one made by them over 20 years ago.  The tubes on that old one have started clogging and it was running hot.  It was $400 20 years ago and it is about $900 now, about inline with inflation over these last 20 years.JoeB

 someone had asked recently about aluminum radiator sources.  I just had a couple made for a sports racer I’m restoring.  After getting a quote from Wizard, who has done great work for me before, I choked on the price and got three other quotes.  Two were consistent, but the third, from Howe Radiators (https://howeracing.com/collections/radiators) was literally half the price.  I traded a couple of emails, looked at who they are, and figured I had to try it.  The new rads showed up today (less than two weeks  from ordering) and are excellent craftsmanship.  Totally custom - I sent in the old side-pod radiators and they copied them.I doubt Howe can beat an off-the-shelf product, but if you need anything non-stock absolutely consider them.
This was a difference of $1500 from others, to $775 from Howe.  I do not see that anything was compromised at all.
NFI.
