Alright my original "old school" Renegade H. radiator is leaking. Now those of you that put together your cooling setup, what Aluminum radiator did you run from Summit or Jegs? Or other online source?

QUOTE(skline @ Jul 17 2007, 07:06 PM)  I have to agree on the part about the hose clamps, there should only be the ones holding it to the radiator and the one at the rear where it connects to the components. Too many clamps make more chances for failure. Ask Joe Buckle how many we took out of his when he bought it, that car was so screwed up and mickey moused it was pathetic. He has or will be pretty much rebuilding that whole car. This time, he is doing it right however. But the choices we have for these cars is growing everyday, I still like the SBC option and I am sticking with it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Yup, as pictured way too many clamps. What I am doing is to mock up a hose from pieces to use as a template to get aluminum tubing bent to match. I am running hard lines under the car that fit into the recesses of the center tunnel.
