Pulled the old carpet out tonight and tried to clean up some wiring. My boy got me new carpet for my birthday a while back so its time to get it in. Ill be switching the black Kirkey seat covers over to grey also.

Freakin Sweet!!

I need a good radiator... With AN fittings. Which one is the best? Any one have a used one?

**Maximus** · 10-07-2021, 10:27 AM

ANY Aftermarket Aluminum Radiator will work. I have a No-Name one in my set-up and I had the -16 Bungs welded on.

**draggin50** · 10-07-2021, 12:38 PM

I have a couple of the SVE radiators and they are just so cheaply made. Wasn't sure if Afco, Griffin, or Fluidyne are any better any more. Not looking for the epoxy tubes.

I talked to Rob and he is a dealer for Afco but they are pretty far out right now.

Niiiiiiiice!

I have a Frostbite aluminum radiator in my car and so far I’m happy with it. The car doesn’t get any warmer than 180 with it.

Ill have it out for sure come spring time. Ill be sure to get you to show up!! These past 2 years have been a wash.

Ron Davis is another option Brian.

**draggin50** · 10-09-2021, 10:53 PM

Ill have to check them out. Thanks!

That should be the last big piece holding me up. Still need a master cylinder also and run brake lines. Rear end should be done next week.

**PKFIRE** · 10-11-2021, 10:14 PM
