    The Nats look to be in Old Washington, which seems to be about 1hr back towards Columbus. That is about 3 to 3 1/2 hrs for me.

    let me see what i can find. the one i used is built for a tug. A tug is used at the airports to move airplanes around. it has two inlets up top and two out lets on the bottom . and would come with two plugs for the two ports that you don't use the one in the photo is what it looks like. you will have to cut a new hole at the rad support for the top hose and trim town 1 side to fit it in . just stack the old one on top of the new one. http://www.fsrradiator.com/ or click on tug radiator

    I WAS THINKING ABOUT TAKING MY RAD. TO A RAD. SHOP TO SEE IF THEY COULD RECORE MINE, IT MIGHT BE THE BEST THING TO DO, AND I KNOW IT WOULD FIT, I DONT THINK I WOULD LIKE A 4 NECK RAD. THAT YOU HAVE TO PLUG OFF 2, MORE CHANCES OF LEAKS.
