34 ford radiator
I HAD A SPECIAL RADIATOR BUILT MANY YEARS AGO. IT IS WHAT i WOULD CALL A SHOW RADIATOR. ALL BRASS WITH A PRESSURE CAP. PUTTING MY COUPE BACK TOGETHER AFTER MANY YEARS. SO I MOCKED IT UP WITH FRONT FENDERS & GRILL. i HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE RADIATOR DIMENSIONS. MOUNTS FOR UPPER GRILL TO THE TANK ARE OFF BY THREE QUARTERS OF AN INCH.NEEDS TO GO BACK THAT MUCH. BUMMER !!. Looks like I will go with a stock radiator. My question is why do I need a pressurized radiator?. Ran it many years ago stock radiator & fan set up with 180 degree thermostats 50/50 mix antifreez/water no problems. I AM RUNNING A MODIFIED 59 AB ENGINE, It never overheated on me!. It seems to me that most everyone is running a pressurized radiator these days. I WOULD APPRECIATE SOME HELP ON THIS. thanks! stan
