Re: i need a aluminum radiator!!!
I buy all my radiators on ebay!!!!!!!!!!! They have 3 & 4 core new ones freight free in usa- Now depending on what water inlet / outlet locations u need??????????? They build both chev & ford types-again I use the chrysler ones as they have side mount flanges on them!! I have these in my chev & ford applications> There are several companys selling them on ebay!1 heres one example- I use the Champion Brands usually!=

Re: i need a aluminum radiator!!!
I used an Ebay aluminum GM crossflow radiator. Turned it so the tanks were top/bottom. Left the fill cap on the bottom, and used a 23LB pressure cap (on the bottom port only) then used a dodge Dakota in hose radiator cap fixture/ with a 13lb cap. Works great. And when you drain the system only take 45 seconds. The radiator was like 19x27 for something like 139.00 free shipping.
I did have to make two flange extenders, so it would bolt up.

Re: i need a aluminum radiator!!!
will that e bay radiator just plain fit? in no way will I cut up my van. I need a rad that fits without modification . or at least the mods get done to the rad NOT the van. any experiences with this???Twinpilot001 wrote:I buy all my radiators on ebay!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: i need a aluminum radiator!!!
I have a 1967 A100 with av-8, I would think all of the years (64-70) would all use the same size radiators? Am I right in thinking this?
