Re: Prepping for a BBC conversion

Be Cool uses Aluminum radiators, their I believe is 1" aluminum cores which are more efficient than the traditional 4 core. My only thoughts are they are expensive.

I just picked up a Proliance 2 row aluminum for my 87 that went bad. I got it a lot larger since it is going to receive the 6.0L transplant. It required mods to the brackets to make it fit which I plan to make some new ones later, and the factory shroud won't fit, but I plan to order a Flex-a-lite or Perma-Cool electric setup for it. It was $170 locally. It is aluminum with plastic tanks.
