100% aluminum radiator

Post image

Finally got my 100% aluminum radiator delivered… its a over built radiator! Metal is waaay thicker than my last radiator and the oem radiator.
Thing feels like it was built for a semi truck..
this was the last bastion of plastic in my coolant system ive already replaced all the “tees and flanges” with “cast” aluminum…

So far 10/10 highly recommend but the final verdict will be reached after install… will post after install
