Stock Model A, what is the better radiator??

Ok, so my factory radiator finally gave out and has more leaks than ever. I'm on the hunt for a quality replacement. The two I have narrowed down to are Brassworks, and Walker.

I know Walker has a very good reputation, but Brassworks is no slouch either.
What have you run, which would you prefer, which would you recommend? I see you can go a pressure system with Brassworks, have any of you done this with a stock 'banger engine??

Thanks for the info guys, these damn things ain't cheap!!!

 

Always used Walker,no complaints or failures,never used Brassworks so not going to compare.

 

JUST BOUGHT AN new rad for my 38 from prc very happy with it

 

Thanks, I had a PRC rad in a 52 Plymouth awhile back and it cooled well. Is yours aluminum? I ask because I'd like to stay away from aluminum since you'll be able to plainly see this radiator.

Thanks for the comments so far.

 

your link is broke zombie.. not that i need any, just cant say iv ever seen brass hose clamps before so was curious. cheers.


err never mine.. i guess was not meant to be a link.. im a idiot.

 

Haha, well thanks! It was supposed to be a link and it isn't working... I'll have to look and see why!

 

Bump for more opinions....?

I did see that Brassworks has a $50 Alliance discount which is nice.

 

Bueller.....???

Peanuts from the evening crowd?

 

Did you ever get any info on this? I may be going this direction too.

 

pressurized system will work better and eliminate that ever so often puking up a bit of water, both radiators are solid choices and can be pressurized

of course you can always have your factory radiator recored for less money than a new radiator and from an old timey stand point will look better

 

Had the same problem with mine a few years ago... found an old guy locally and had him put a new core in it. Works great, looks nice and saved a lot of money!
