now ive gone and done it
« on: July 10, 2006, 23:51:00 »
now i have gone and dun it ! i have had enough of my disco getting hot and botherd each time i take it for a spin 60 plus mph so i took out the rad and found that over 50% filled with mud etc so ... i went down to a rad maker and chatted to him and he has told me the best way is to have a diffrent kind of core !!!! what i say ? then shows me a new type of core for the rad its 4 inches thick and the cooling fins are set horrizontal and are twice as thick as the old ones so it can be steamed cleaned or jet washed when dirty.. so .. i will be picking up my new rad tommrow it has 50% more cooling  than my old one and is easer to clean. the cost of all this work and the diffrent core           £135.00     wow its made my day !!! all i am looking for now is a set of kenlows for it now and i am sorted roll om billing  :(contented):
