re: Time for a new radiator suggestions?



Hi Stefano,
There might be an aluminum radiator that would fit your GTV, but why?  A good
GTV radiator is more than up to the task of keeping your engine at proper
operating temp.  If you need repairs, I'd have the shop the re-core it, and
have them install a bung for a thermoswitch while they have it.  Then you can
remove your engine driven fan and replace it with an electric fan.
Alternately, put out a call on the Digest for a good used radiator, someone
probably has one in their garage.

I have this setup in my GTV, it never heats past 190 degrees, even sitting in
traffic on a 95 degree day or winding hard in the hills, and I'm running
10.4:1 pistons and Euro cams.

Cheers,
Tony
