Radiator question...

did a quick search, didn't see anything...

does anyone have any experience with the following radiator? Price appears right, called and talked to the company, seems ok. The only problem is the top inlets are too big, but that can be compensated for with hoses, I think.

1941 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 FORD FLAT HEAD TRUCK - eBay (item 160556954433 end time Apr-08-11 08:15:10 PDT)

thanks,

roger

i got a buddy with a bird like mine had good luck with an ebay / aftermarket radiator of aluminum construstion , but then my cuz bought one for his ol' furd truck and it was a p.o.s . so it's a shooting match . i have seen some of the aftermarket heads for our flatties with bigger water outlets and they used some sort of adaptors to fit them to the oe size hoses . first peeps come to mind are motor city flathead and flat attack . so obviously it can be done . all else fails look up u.s radiator online and scope out there products , then go to npd as that is who makes there's and as hard as it is too believe it was cheaper to buy mine from npd than to buy it direct from u.s ! later rog ! err .... i mean mr. zombie ............
