I just got a champion radiator and I do believe that is correct 1/4" npt. It did come with a nipple you could use for a size comparison or at least mine did.

On a slant six the mounting bracket is CRAZY high.

Trying to stay as original as possible. As for the parts I ordered from polarbearinc.com a shaft seal and gasket set 40 bucks. I was just hoping to find out how much torque to tighten the bolts and any other things to watch for.

Anyone have a site or document detailing the process? Should I use gasket sealant?

If only I could have walked away. She has recently become my daily driver so that was not an option.

Damn it I don't really like the mullet. lol Now all I can think of is the show opener.

The aftermarket ones on Mustangs use a larger bolt and are plastic. I wanted a metal one.

Thank you cosworth. Truth is I have a very analytical mind so it is VERY point a to b to c.

I improvised mine. I bought one from rockauto for a 70 something valiant. When it came the inside diameter was to large so I thought about how I could make it work and I decided a washer on either side the same size as the inside race and then the bolt through the washer. The compressive force...

lol I like that one Revhendo

Amen to that and yes venting does make it a bit better now maybe my shoulder and back will stop hurting and I will be all good lol. Thank you guys I know sometimes you start and are all prepared and say this will be a cake walk And it turns into anything but.

Okay I am simply posting this story because it has been a nightmare. So I ordered a replacement radiator a couple of weeks ago and I received it and everything looked GREAT but when I test fitted it the upper radiator hose was to close to the AC compressor. I call the company and he tells me I...

I am looking for the champion radiator that will fit my 65 barracuda. Can anyone help me find the model number or a place to buy it at a reasonable price? Inlet is in the middle and the outlet passenger side.

I installed an RV2 in my 65 Barracuda and under dash unit it cools VERY quickly I get hard nipples almost instantly.

72dart yes very worth fixing the AC. I too am in Georgia and I gotta tell ya it is SOOO much nicer having the cool air. Shouldn't be that bad to fix either.

Be prepared with a friend preferably these compressors are 45 pounds without refrigerant. I installed mine mostly by myself and it was not a good idea I cut my arms and hands an crushed my thumb in the process and it took nearly 45 minutes. With a friend I am sure 15 minutes.

Well thank you for not making feel like an idiot. I looked online and could not clearly find an answer. One more question Is it possible to roll a circle without a roller? If so any suggestions on how would be awesome. Ohh and reason to not pop rivet the corners?

I have a stupid question should the fan fit into the shroud or just as close to the fan hole as possible?

Good news figured it out. It was a two part issue. Yes the belt is slightly to long and I am not getting good tension but the clutch was FILTHY I pulled it off wiped it down with brake cleaner till the towel came off clean then I took 60 grit and scuffed both surfaces to clean the burns off then...

Is the fan off the Lebanon also? This is a great option for the poor like me lol. I have had a few weeks of absolutely devastating expense. Roof, siding, septic and blown transmission in wife's car.

It certainly helps but it was 90 degrees here in GA today with 80% + humidity an my windows in my 65 Barracuda are not tinted and it was pretty cool in my car even after driving for 45-60 minutes.

Yes the belt is brand new and I tightened it again today.

Pressure is good voltage is good. Can the clutch be resurfaced if so how?

I did add the oil to the compressor through the fitting on the passenger side. I removed the old oil first. It is a 65 Barracuda but the system is not stock. The condenser is a parallel universal. I am going this weekend to pick up some gauges and verify. I feel this is probably the most...

I put in 10oz of Oil and 22-24 ounces of R134. I will double check the voltage. If it is not 12.8 volts what are my options?

Okay so here is what is happening and what I believe the issue to be. When I am at a idle, the RPMs are low, if the AC clutch engages it squeels intermittenatly. I thought it was the bearing but I then realized it does NOT happen ALL the time. I can hear at regular running RPMs the clutch slips...

Something nobody has said is if the system is charged DO NOT open the crankcase you WILL vent your refrigerant. I started to add another ounce the other day and as I was turning I started to hear a hiss.

I found the clutch bearing I hope but now the question is how hard is it to remove the bearing and seat a new one? I know how to remove the clutch. From what I have found remove the bolt at the center and either use a claw pulley remover or tap around the pulley till it pops off.

I borrowed a set of gauges. Unfortunately last night I was going through my hose connections and it turns out I am missing the large side of my condenser and both sides of the compressor. Sucks I was hoping to be driving cold tomorrow.

It is a custom system. I found online 25-44 PSI on the low side is within normal range. Does that sound right? BillGrissom is saying 50psi. I have 3 12oz cans right now.
