This=20 is what Nascar radiators are running for thickness, and believe me, as = close as all those cars run there's been some considerable testing on radiator = design. Fred ------------------------ Fred, I originally wanted a thicker core, but nobody seems to sell them, even in custom radiators. Griffin has a 2 row core, that uses 1.25", = but that's the thickest I've been able to find. So far, I've looked at = Griffin, Howe, and C&R. Are there any other good sources for custom rads? =20 Thanks, Rusty
