Unless you do a Superbird cone nose, these things ain't gonna be aerodynamic...
ScampMike

it does - but these cars certainly weren't designed with aerodynamics in mind...

yeah lol
right but it hits the flat surface of the core support

Yep, there is a Barracuda with nose in my area I saw at a show last year. Better than the Dart, but why?...ahhh the Dartbird!!! remember that abomination!?

unless you plan to go over 130-140mph - there is no need

So, the real improvement would be to funnel that air through the rad. Otherwise you guy with the 27 row super size aluminum might as well use a heater core in there. lol
ScampMike
Despicable Damn Yankee
eh - aluminum is lighter, and if you believe that they don't do a better job by virtue of the opening for air intake is the same - then simply that they are lighter and they don't rust is enough reason to get one...
ScampMike
Despicable Damn Yankee
the truth is, those original radiators did a good job
ScampMike

I actually have an original spec unit that I was going to use in my last car - and if the Scamp didn't have the aluminum one in there when I bought it, I doubt I would have spent the coin..
thats what i was thinking actually
what rad is in there
ScampMike
Despicable Damn Yankee

Well had my first chicken and waffles experience. Gotta say, pretty darn good! Not a big wing fan,(lot of work for the amount of meat) but man were they tasty!

Around here it's chicken (or turkey) in gravy on waffles. Never had the fried chix w/syrup on them.
Still no start on my GTS 383 this morning..
Looks like it has spark.. but looks a little weak to me... Has a pertronix unit in the dist.
So.... I pulled all the plugs... PIA...and cleaned em all up...they were all wet with fuel...
Cranked the engine with no plugs... got fuel flyin out of #7 and #8 since they are down hill...
Got other Honey do's to do .. so I'll let it dry out real good and put the plugs back in tomorrow....
