Hi Kevin,

I see the radiator in the photo that's showing in your latest post. Very nice-looking with brass upper tank. Is it custom-made? Where did you get it? Was the price reasonable?

When I install the 265 flathead in my Power Wagon, I'm going to need to adapt my existing radiator (stock '49 unit), or I'm going to need to buy a custom-made unit. A lot of people have had good experience with Champion Radiators, so I may go with them. I doubt that's what yours is, with the brass tank, so I'd be interested to hear who built it and how they were to deal with.

I'm a little concerned about taking measurements and getting something wrong and ending up with a custom radiator that doesn't fit. Any tips with that aspect would also be appreciated. I can see that it will be difficult to tell exactly where everything needs to go when it's all disassembled.

Thanks,

Matt
