Are there any considerations for electrolysis of using an aluminum radiator? I mean, will the aluminum be eaten up unless an anode is used somewhere? What does BeCool say about that?

The guys at Be Cool agree with Bill at Ron Davis Radiators. There is no concern with brass and aluminum in this configuration.

I have also heard of a new type of tube in a radiator that has a swirling effect built into the inside of the tube that swirls the coolant as it travels through the tube. It is a new development that is supposed to be a lot more efficient.

Guys at Be Cool Radiators said you are most likely referring to a fluted oval tube design. It creates turbulence in the coolant so it is all exposed to the cooling fin. They have been using fluted core design for several years now.
