If you don't have the original Detomaso radiator (maybe Roger still has it?)

I have my original radiator if you'd like it. At minimum, it probably needs to go to a local radiator shop to be rodded out and have the tanks re-soldered. At the worst, it might need a new core; a competent radiator shop could tell you. I had the same symptoms you describe, so I installed a new copper/brass radiator from PPC Reno (Larry Stock) about 7 years ago. I was going to rebuild my radiator, but Larry had them in stock and I was trying to get my car back together in time for Concorso.

Anyway, I still have the original and you can have it if you want.

FWIW, the Phoenix radiator from Hall is an extra large extra capacity radiator, not a stock replacement.

As far as cooling capacity, I've never had any cooling issues with my stock style radiator, including sitting in 100 degree weather in stop and go traffic on Hwy 17 going over the hill to Santa Cruz.
