alum rad in 1009

[bronconut]

so i was going thru the new 1009 and i noticed it has a welded aluminum radiator, does any body else have one of these.

I dont, mine had a 2Flu brass one which I needed to replace and I got a 3Flu brass...Aluminum is much cheaper, and cools faster/ keeps cool longer...However, it is much more difficult to repair.

i thought a brass one would cool better

I build alot of race trucks and prefer the aluminum over brass cools better and a lot easyer to repair and not as heavy also the fins will not rot like the brass rads

The radiator in mine sprung a leak and wasn't repairable . I ordered one from my parts supplier and they sent me one that is all aluminum. Looks like something for a hotrod.
