It depends on how close to original you want/need to keep it. I would box up the original pump and throw an aftermarket on there.

Futzy, I'm not sure what it would take to piecemeal a full blown aftermarket system together since apparently there are no bolt-in kits for your application. I do know that there are self-contained AC systems that are mounted under the dash. Granted, I'm not sure if it will work for your...

I used the original cast iron style (and not the newer aluminum pump). Didn't want to hassle with a new radiator or repositioning the inlet/outlet. Note: I did use the high volume cast iron pump. Btw: No AC or PS.

There was a local ad on Craigslist for the past few weeks where someone was selling a complete AC system out of a 68/69 Dart. I just checked and didn't see it listed but will keep an eye out to see if he relists it.

I have used it in the past and it does work (at least in my case). I used it because I didn't have the time to chase down the real reason why I was running so hot. It was a temporary fix. Usually, there are reasons why your vehicle is overheating (ie. non-sufficient cooling system [radiator...

What are your thoughts on the earlier timing chain cover/water pump? Is your motor all ready together?

Here's a few to peruse Brad. Some may be way out of ballpark cost-wise. Also, re: the 360 issue. How about using an earlier timing chain cover on it or perhaps using your exisiting radiator and have the inlet/outlet moved (and recored if necessary)? Sometimes the additional cost justifies...

New radiators made to fit your specific car are readily available (no need to fab/mod mounts for one that wasn't made for your application). Let me see if I can find a few sources for you.

Tim, what thermostat are you running and how is the car running otherwise?

John, I am not a radiator expert but I liked what I saw (and read). They did an excellent job comparing their product to their competitors and all of their policies (at least in type) look solid. Their feedback looks good as well. BTW: Are you having heating issues or are you just looking for...

Anyone have any info on this?

A friend called me today and asked me if I read an article in MCG in the past few months about an aftermarket heater core that was designed specifically to work with high-flow water pumps. Supposedly (and this just may be more of a marketing ploy), these "special" cores are recommended because...

No problems here at all.

Can we see a pic or two of the radiator? Any #s on the top tank?

Well, read the service manual and with working on it a couple of hours a night, it looks like it will be down for a week which means I will have to drive the GTX all week ... damn it! Did I mention it was a vert and the weather has been in the mid-60s here? ;-) Any other short cuts would be...

Excellent point re: the bags Adam. I am going to peruse the service manual as my nightly reading before I hit the sack.

Not to sound conceited or anything but after years of working for JD Powers & IntelliChoice (now owned by Primedia), I will never get taken advantage of by a dealer. Granted, they may not sell to me but taking advantage will not happen. There were times when we were absolutely hated by the...

On at least three separate occasions, I drove by the Dodge dealer and was tempted to purchase something new but for some reason I didn't. I am very attached to my truck. Joyce even says its a little weird. ;-) Actually, I really like the styling of the last generation and may consider...

Well, it sounds like I ned to pull the GTX out of the mothballs and get the service manual out while I take this apart. Anyone else have any pearls of wisdom/shortcuts here?

I believe the heater core is going out on my '98 Ram. What looked like smoke (but smelt like coolant) was tricking out of my dash vents and there was a light film across my windshield (coming out of the defrost vents). Unless someone tells me different, I am thinking it is definitely the...

Xstream, thanks for the offer. You were going to be selling parts on-line correct? If so, how can you do (price-wise) on these pumps?

I posted several weeks ago asking for recommendations/pros & Cons on elec water pumps (ie. CSR, Meziere, etc.). I didn't get any replies. Mind if I piggy back on your thread? It may benefit us both.

I am looking at electric pumps for a street/strip (a little more strip) 408 setup. Can anyone offer up any pros/cons between the different mnfrs available (ie. CSR, Meziere, etc,) if there are any? Any recommendations would be appreciated. TIA

Do you have all of the AC parts for a V8 car (as in absolutely complete)? Are they still on the car or have the been taken off yet?

Thanks Dave. I guess I did not look close enough when I was searching for one. Now if only they had an aluminum version.

So ... I am assuming (yes, I am assuming) that there isn't one available? Any feedback would very much be appreciated.

Is there an aftermarket hi-volume water pump sources for the the pre-70 small blocks? If anyone knows of anyone offering one, please post that information here. TIA.
