Radiators

[Red Beard]

I was wondering about radiators. How much difference is there between the /6 and 360 radiators. What size would be appropiate for a 360 ?

Thanks

the slant 6 radiator is really small (18"?)0. a V8 car came with a 22" or bigger.

You can modify a 26" radaitor to fit between the frame rails. Wider radaitor cools better. Although you can run a 22 inch radaitor on a 360 with no problems ussually.

After thinking about it isn't a /6 like a 20", v8 was like a 23 or 24?

Ok, a 22" will do it, a 26" does it better, but needs modified, alright you've made up my mind. I'm going with a 24" :roll:

Thanks Guys
