Looking at replaceing orgainal,rebuilding motor,might as well do this while out. any sug. on a replacement. have seen cost vary greatly.

 

I'm transplanting to a 454 and I will use a deep core, high capacity, aluminum rad with elec fans.

 

I LOVE GRIFFIN... GREAT STUFF

If you want the best you may want to check these out. http://www.scandc.com/howeradiators.htm We use them in our shop all the time. That`s why we started selling them. We did a `77 Vette with a very healthy 468 for a customer last summer. With a 16" electric fan and a 165 thermostat it`ll sit and idle all day long (or until the plugs foul,it`s pretty rowdy!) and never go over 170*. I don`t think I`ve ever seen a big block Vette that can do that before. They`re not cheap but they`re custom built side by side with Howe`s NASCAR radiators,from all the same components. Top shelf stuff. Mark SC&C

We can build a cooling system that we feel is the best on the market. We trim a new Mark VIII fan (5000 cfm, 18" single fan-baddest there is!) to fit the 3rd gen. Vettes using a Northern Race radiator. We can pre-wire it using the newly introduced Spal PWM true variable speed fan controller to give you more options/settings than you could think of. We offer complete packages as a drop-in replacement. Email if you want more details, we'd be glad to help! -Jabin
