I do not have any experience with aluminum radiators but I have tried oil c=
oolers, "Texas fans", and electric fans. I finally had my original recored =
with a core that has extra rows. The upper tank is original but the lower i=
s thicker, which made installation a little challenging. The radiator has b=
een in for at least 15-20 years. I have driven under almost every conditio=
n- very hot ambient temps, high speed (80-90MPH) traffic etc. and the engin=
e temps stay where they should be. Strongly recommend this option, especia=
lly since it almost impossible to distinguish my radiator from the stock or=
iginal and it has worked to perfection.

Subject: Re: [Healeys] Heater query
My 100 radiator is in need of some rehabilitation. It either needs to be bo=
iled out, which would not replace some of the damaged fins, or re-cored. I =
am leaning toward re-coring but that would be more expensive, which leads t=
o the aluminum option.
Besides price what are the pros vs. cons of these options? Does anyone know=
if re-cored 100 radiator is more efficient than an aluminum radiator?
