I know every body touts the benefits of Adrad and how fantastic these radiators are, but looking at this one, I'm unimpressed. I'll take my cheaper heavier one I think.
I realise weight doesn't always equate to strength, but in this instance I think it just might. The added beef in the upper and lower frames will, in my mind, help stop the twist and hopefully premature failure.

Gee whiz it's been a while since I posted here! Chimed in to say that I've had an Adrad for a few years now, and I've never been especially impressed with it either... that said I guess it's still intact so I'd better quit complaining!

Gday Hamsteh.
Good to hear ya Adrad still cools for ya.
After some snoopin and pokin around with my old radiator, I've come to the conclusion that I killed it.
Between the tank and core is a lot of corrosion and it has swollen the tank away from the core. I'd say not enough maintenance.

Another thing people will need to learn, is I tend to speak metaphorically, quite a bit. Maybe....
