for the buggy (propane powered 350SBC), what size should i go with? should i get as big as i can fit or....?
also, would the fan make a difference if it were push or pull style? 1/19/2006 12:38:04 PM |

personally i would just go by the horsepower range modine or be cool suggests, and a puller. tends to stay drier

stick with something close to stock size for a truck 350. 4 core would be nice, but not completely neccessary. for your application, the push/pull debate isn't much of an issue since you won't ever be seeing many (if any) road miles. 1/19/2006 1:21:01 PM |

griffin makes some great race quality all aluminum radiators for less than $200, and they came in about 30 sizes.

summit racing can order anything they make fairly cheap, and they can even custom make them for a reasonable price

yo call up my boy at Muscle Motor Sports in Huntersville NC. bought that 4 core nascar take out for 120 bucks. bitch was money. got an electric fan (15") for 35 bucks with it. plenty of cool and they all kinds of used ones that are take outs. mine is a 4 core fluidine with tanny cooler built in the bottom if you want to use it. i will be using it as a tranny cooler in the new one with an auto. with a 5 speed you could use it as a hydro cooler. call muscle and ask for Adam. Tell him i sent ya and he will help ya out. 1/19/2006 11:44:54 PM |

^^^^ thats just a regular bmw radiator with aluminum tanks. nothing to brag about.
you shouldnt need a stock size truck radiator for a buggy. 1/20/2006 7:04:19 PM |
