I'm so afraid of pulling my engine and finding all those kidna things wrong with it. I have an extra radiator... Dont buy the chinese/japanease made radiators, they're just a bunch of shit. They don't clog the tubes before they dip it in the solder or something, and so it gets all cloged and the thing doesn't work very well. Try to find one at a junkyard or something, and have it cleaned out or something.
ya, im thinking of just ordering one from MOSS, they're kinda pricy ($185), but i know that it will be the exact same as stock. every thing of theirs is. as a matter of fact, its kinda bad sometimes. for instance, i had to order a mess load of gaskets for the rebuild. i was kinda dissapointed, they sent me the exact same gaskets as stock.... the whole like cardboard thing. i dont know if youve found that out or not, but our gaskets are all just like really thin particle board... so my sugestion to you, if you ever have to replace one, is to get yourself some gasket sealer/maker. it's pretty cheep for a big tube, and im hoping that itll make the seal better and last longer... who knows, might just be wishful thinking.
Yeah, I replaced the carb gasket things, the gaskets do really suck. I could just send you mine, but its pretty old and beaten in, I got it off a scrap car, just in case I destroyed mine some how. They're expensive because there made of brass or something, arn't they?

and im just going to order another one... i got no choice. thanks for the offer, but i couldnt put someone at that kind of an inconvienence.
however, since it is copper, i think i can take it to a machine shop and sell it for the copper, probably like $30 or something... better than nothing
