$$ for radiator recore and radiator support
Any ideas about how much i'm looking at to have my copper SB (26", 4 row)
radiator recored? No leaks, but it is over 30 years old.
I wanted to stay stock, and can not really afford an aluminum unit.
What have you paid?
Also, any suggestions as far as the best price for a core support? I see the popular catalogs want about $300 for one :eek:

hello
i paid $120 at a good radiator shop who knows what they are doin. havent had 1 problem since... (mines a 4 core also...) and that was yearssss ago...
i replaced my radiator core support after my old one rotted out so bad that the old radiator slid forward and the right tank was punctured on the corner of a frame bracket.... i shopped around and $300 bux is just the price to pay for it..... have to bite the bucket on that one...
:cheers:

Help me out guys, but he should have the shroud in place before replacing the radiator. As I recall it was a S.O.B. to get that shroud in after the radiator!
