Default Re: aluminum radiators

I put a Champion radiator in my '51 Mercury and it isn't designed correctly. It fits but the top tank is offset the wrong way and was letting a lot of fresh air escape up and over. My car ran hot with that Chinese rip off. I had to make an air dam to correct it. I regret trying to save money. You'll also have to etch and paint it if you don't want it to stick out like a boner in sweat pants too. They are bright aluminum.
