RS boxxer or whatever his user name is

Search for a post by him and yes it would appear you get what you pay for

You try and help someone out and then they don't believe you

oh boring infomation time

did you know that when you do a head gasket its recomended that you get the rad flow checked and change the thermostat

due to these being reasons for it to let go,,,,, yet most people dont even know this

you laugh but if that IS a copper core rad then its the best rad material you could get

just cause its not shiney dont mean its crap

actually change that,, just cause its not got a pro alloy sprayed onto it dont mean it must be shite


did you know what pro alloy AND radtech both buy there rad and intercooler cores from a company called nissens who make most of the rads in the country including standard rads for car companys aswell as aftermarket


the end caps are the ONLY difference,,, cores are rhe same,,,, btw i speak to nissens about 10 times a day when i order rads for them and he recomended pro alloy for a frst rad i was trying to get due to wayne being a dam good lad and he said hes welding and fabrication is spot on and is proud to deal with him

so guess you could say pro alloy ARE good,,,, or waynes a fucking big customer of hes these days
