Are you sure.

 

Just go to your local auto parts store and get an aluminum one for like a hundred buck!

 

That's what I say if you got the money, I bought an aluminum Griffin from summit for $180, but I hear autozone sells their brand for $120.

 

Thats what i did! Never reaches 180

 

notice a difference in the cooling? i can see justifing 400 for a be cool. There has to be some other alternatives...

 

The car runs cooler, but BeCool I think is over priced at $400 just go with Griffin.
Actually there was a debate long ago that copper actually dissapates heat better than aluminum, but the thing that helps is the 3 core design of most aluminum radiators creating more surface area.

 

one from a new s10 or blazer with the vortec work just as good as the aluminum ones only they are cheaper. i got one from a 1999 blazer and it fit right in and stayed cool for only 40 bucks.

 

i just re read my one reply... i meant to say i cant see justifying it... i always leave the n't part off... kind of changes the meaning.

the s10 radiator... fit good? and i am guessing the 40 buck s10 radiator was from a junkyard?
