What brand do you use? I would like to collect data about the different radiator sizes,volumes and the way they are made. .
It seems that there are huge differences in made and materials.
- length, height and thickness of the net?
- amount of rows( two, three or more..)?
- brass/ copper, aluminum?
- how many tube connections between the left and right end tank?
- vented gaps in the fins or closed fins?
- turbolators inside the tubes?
It should be easy to find the brand which seems to be most preferrable.

I had the radiator made in a place in Melbourne. We have fitted it with a bit of body work modifications and we have had to alter the shroud slightly. I will see if I can get some data.
I had to tow the Tvan this morning to get a little repair done. On a steep hill near home the temp gauge would normally creep to the 100 mark, even on a cold day. Today it remained on the 95 mark.
I will get some of the technical detail that I can.
When we took the old radiator out may of the cooling vanes just fell off, so I am not sure how efficient it was.
Cheers
