You also run the risk when rodding a core, if original 28-29 radiator, as the tubes are seamed, could leak on one or more tubes and the only way to correct is plugging off the leaking tibes at the top and bottom; results, less cooling.

Note: the new Brass Works 30-31 10 fin Radiator has a problem with the neck, ie, a original 30-31 cap will not fit, had to use a replacement or try to modify the neck which I didn't want to do. My replacement Quail motormeter would also not fit.
