Panteradoug,
I totally follow your last post.
I"m looking to replace or rebuild my stock radiator. I actually appreciate the opinions here. Every vendor has their own wildly different opinion, and it is truely frustrating.
Facts about the Hall radiator are simple: it seems very suited for street cars and can be easily repaired by a radiator shop. It's heavy.
Facts about the Fluidyne (maybe even the Ron Davis one also): it's lightweight and works well. Some versions may be undersized for high-hp engines. They can't be repaired by your average radiator shop. Beware of any radiator that use zip ties to mount the fans to the core. I can't say that they last as long, as I don't really know that.
I hope this adds to the discussion. I'm not saying any vendor's advise isn't worth much, but how in the world do they get so wildly different?
