Hey yobboford or anyone else that can help, I am after a better radiator for my EL as it always runs hot and well anyone who was at the burnout comp saw that my car boiled and blew all the coolant out of the radiator!

Anyway just wanted to know where yobboford got his 3 core radiator from and how much it was worth! Also if anyone else knows where you can get better aftermarket radiators that will fit!

Its an el 6cyl auto but I want a manual radiator cause im going to run an external cooler for the auto! To try and remove as much heat form the cooling system as possible.

wouldnt the manual radiator have no provisions for the gearbox lines?
And as such have more space for coolant?

hmmm thats what i was thinking as well - those coolant lines really wouldn't constitute much in the scheme of things, especially if you're going for a 3-core job anyways.
