Used radiator pricing

[Starfury]

I looked into that for my radiator swap. It's not as feasible as it sounds. The 70+ water pump with the inlet on the p-side is a hair taller than the older d-side inlet pumps, meaning that you'd also have to change pulleys and relocate your timing pointer.

If it was me and I already had a pump snout on the drivers side or plan to, I would get another radiator just for idea that a radiator with offset snouts forces the coolant to travel across the radiator and then down covering more area, instead of hovering only on the passenger side. This is what I've done in both our Mustangs.

That sounds like more work doing a swap.... or having a radiator shop fix the bottom hole. I'm just going to buy a new one so I have a nice new shiny one and call it done.

:confu I assume you were not responding to me for I basically agreed with what you were planning to do.

I was replying to the ones who said water pump swap or take the radiator in and have it fixed. :thu

Water pump swap can get into a lot of headaches down the road if you desire to add other options to the front of the engine...... For some, it works good as it did on my first '66. The next one caused problems...
