I have been sporting your dewitts radiator for over 10 years and still no problems. Also, my response has always been get a dewitts radiator any overheated comments anywhere. Best radiators out there for corvettes.

Just ordered a brand new expansion tank, dated. DeWitts is the maker, I’d like a jacket. Looks like I didn’t break the purchase point.
still though should get a tee shirt. Lol

I bought an A90A for my '92 on April 27, 2012. Is that too far back to qualify?

Liked that one so much that I ordered a Dewitt's for my '64 a couple years back. Now, I can only wear ONE at a time, so I'm not asking for TWO, but as long as everyone else is getting in line, I'll join the queue!

Joking aside, and jackets aside, they ARE the best radiator for our cars.

Bought my BB radiator 8 months ago, for what we paid it would have been nice to get a jacket.

Haven't even installed the Dewitt's radiator I picked up during the Christmas sale at 12% off, but I'm good - no jacket needed. Just need the car to behave in hot weather in heavy traffic.

It will. We had the C-4 in Texas mid-summer, AC on max, no temp issues at all.

You can keep your jacket. I always buy the best

DeWitts is the best in radators.

let me say that I also bought one of your radiators early last spring. A direct replacement for my 1967 big block in black ice. I was having cooling issues and wanted to replace the brass OEM one
i had the opportunity to talk with one of your reps and was impressed on his knowledge and recommended the standard one vs the performance one. Installed it last April and couldn’t be happier. The jacket would of been nice but would of never prevented me from buying your product.
thanks for the help
Ed
