Thanks Guys. I had just hung a new "old style" water pump and was filling when I noticed I nicked a fin. Soldered it! Just took it for a spin. No leak. The next time I will upgrade> Thanks Again!:cheers:does it have the original style water pump?
i switched to the 70+ water pump and put a radiator from an 88 dodge pickup in my dart
got it from o'reilly auto parts
if you are not using the later style water pump and have the stock radiator... you might consider upgrading.
Oh well, I'm not taking off the new water pump I just hung. 1-800-radiator said had to be made $500.00+when you consider that ican get the radiator i mentioned above brand new for half that, no.
just my opinion

Is the radiator from the 88 truck a 22" x 17.5? If it's the same size it would be worth the upgrade. I should have upgraded but did not know before doing the water pump!
The story of my life.....if there is a harder more expensive way to do something, I'm sure to do it that way and find out a better way later!
Thanks for the reply Dragginmaster...............
I wish now I would have went that route. It would be worth trashing the new pump and converting but already pulled trigger on core. Again the story of my sorry assed life strikes again! I'm so used to getting screwed or screwing myself it almost doesn't even bother me anymore.the core size is 18 x 26 which fills in the hile in the radiator support better.

I hate that. When I dropped it off I said I guess it would be done in a week or 2. He said "Land no, We'll have ya fixed up in a couple of days. As of going back this afternoon it's been 10 days! It's no wonder the country is where its at today.Your doing better that me.... I'm still waiting on Griffin for my custom aluminum radiator. Been two weeks now. I call them to see what the hell is going on and she said she'll call me back... that was 3 hours ago. The guy that took my order said it should be less than a week and it would be ready for pick up... not!
This one should work for you.

Everyone that I sold parts to here on FABO have been very happy with what they received...
I'm sorry, the radiator finally worked out after the second run to the rad shop lastnight.i dont want to beat on you, its not my intention, but... you may want to try another tactic in your battle

Dragginmaster, what are you driving at with changing tactic in my battle? It just seems like when we are fixing something other gremlins pop up all the time! The car had been butchered before we got it.
More problems came up on test drive of radiator, not with radiator, with electrical system. See electric section post, Help need electrical guru if your interested.
Thanks again guys!
No sweat, just wondering. My tacktics are usually very predictably wrong! LOL!!! The radiator is ok I think, but have not had it running enough yet to determine! Up to my eyeballs right now with electrical, I should have let it go up in flames but even though I hate this car, I refuse to let it beat me! Wierd that kind of sounds like first marage!!LOLperhaps i misinterpreted you
Good luck with the key turning!! I'm really not sure if I'm going to apply power to "BOF", I'll let ABodyBetty do that this time!!!!rememeber to sweet talk it while the problems are going on, if you are cursing while all these repairs are going on things tend to get worse ;-)
at least that is how it seems to go with mine.
am hoping to actually turn the key on mine this next weekend of mine (thursday / friday) I foresee one problem after another arising, but hoping for nothing to go wrong at all, will settle for somewhere in between the two.
