Reply to "Radiator is leaking"

The thermal conductivity of Copper is nearly twice that of aluminum meaning a better material to use.  I agree with you that the Aluminum Pantera radiator was someone's idea of saving weight.  I know the big auto manufacturers went to it to do that as well as cost.  That's why the Hall Copper rad is $1700, the Brassworks is $1900, and a nice GT40 copper rad is $2500.  Some of the aluminum rads are also epoxied, not welded.
