I wanted to be sure the money that was spent on the new Radiator doesn’t blow again..

I couldn’t believe all the old stuff that I have vacuumed out of the block. It’s not over yet. I still need to flush it with something, probably vinegar and water mix also recommended here on the Barn.

Did brassworks re-do your original 1932 ford radiator? Or did you buy a new unit from Brassworks ? What are you running for motor?
I was curious if the NEW brassworks unit has the top and bottom outlets placed in the same locations/angles as stock. That is part of what has me debating on re-doing my radiatior.
