Absodamnlootly

You "might" get by if the replacement was exact material & dimensions of oem. You also might get by for local autox under the " no woose protests" rules, but if you do the tour or nat's get an oem.

I do. Maybe you didn't read my response to your accusation a week or so ago. Also, see today's topic, "L98 Radiator Question" by "theguardian" just a short while ago.

Default My 1990

I had a side tank replaced on my 1990 radiator. The shop charged me $100 and also said he power flushed it after and pressure tested for leaks. Total was like $135 or around there after tax and hoo ha.

Default I did the R&R

I did the R&R because I had to do some cleaning also. Those things get so dirty in there.

LT-4 CE: I have another OLD radiator in the garage out of a 90 or 91 with a cracked RIGHT tank if you'd like to make bookends.
