Reply to "Overheating"

I was just thinking of radiator issues today too. In my stock Pantera, I previousely had a Hall Phoenix (the huge radiator), and the Mariha pusher fans and one sucker fan. With this in the car, it never ran above 190. However, it got a leak, and rather than fix it, I traded it for a new one at Hall, which was smaller (they no longer had the huge Phoenix radiator). They indicated that the new one was better. However, now I am sad I traded it because it isn't apparently as good in cooling (my opinion), beacuse I reach 220 or so on occasion, even with all the same fan set up. Never overheating, but hotter. Not to knock the product, but I wish I had kept the Phoenix radiator. If someone is offering one of the Phoenix radiators you may want to condider that (I saw one on ebay before).

In my Group 4 I have an aluminum radiator with two sucker fans, and this radiator is perfect, never running past 190, even with big horsepower and at a standstill. It says Ron Davis Racing on it, and even has what I believe to be his phone # on it (602) 269-9194. Probably the same as other Pantera vendors, but you may want to ask about this as an option if you are looking at radiators.

But as Jack says, overheating could be caused by many problems, not just radiator.
