Re: Our "What are we going to do?" 66 Suburban Build
We knew we needed a lot more cooling capacity/air flow than the old 27x19 radiator pkg. had provided.
After a bit of back and forth with CBR, we ended up with a 3" thick, 38x19, double-pass radiator that incorporates a unique tube design which dramatically increases the effective tube surface area and a core design that reduces the spacing between tubes from 9mm to 6mm...which means more tubes.
All in all, we have a radiator that has over twice the surface area with 2 16" Spal fans pulling 5000 cfm's through it...I don't think overheating is going to be a problem.
Our challenge is making it fit...opening up the inner fenders and making a completely new radiator support is the plan.
