Inliners International Forums General Discussion Engines radiator ques; 75 nova: 250

without taking out my radiator and seeing the space, i was wondering if someone could help me out. I want one of jegs' aluminum radiators but i dont know which dimension to go

Hello. I would measure the radiator if you can. H x L x W. If you can tell them roughly what you have they might be able to get you what you need.

yeah i'll do that, i was just wondering if anyone on here knew off the top of their head ... trying to have a lazy sunday here, haha.

i didnt see one made for a 75 nova on jegs. so far im having no luck for an aluminum stock replacement

im tryin to do this thing on a budget and $285 is a little high ... im hopin one of their own that are 180 would work. they had one with dimensions similiar to that one ... i think it was 26 x 18

You don't want an aluminum radiator anyway. The factory one is much better.

If there's a restriction "rod it out" or replace the core with a '4 row' one.

Good luck.

my radiator is good, but it has that brownish fluid in there that im told was the old coolant from a decade ago

If it's brownish. It may very well be Mostly water. It if don't leak Flush the sysytem and add Fresh stuff/fluids. and save your money.Your not going to gain anything on the alum Rad.My 2cents

Larry's correct.

When finished a Teaspoon of Baking Soda is good 'insurnace' to make sure the water/flushing agents (remaining) are totally non-corrosive.

After driving a few weeks, drain it again & add Coolant if wanted/needed.

In the California desert most run 100% coolant. If there's a need (on the road) to add water your still protected from freezing etc.

Happy trails.

well the radiator had a leak of some kind one day, but so far it hasnt occured since. old cars are full of surprises

I put a 4 core radiator in my truck for a 350ci, that's a nice upgrade for the engine and was in stock at the local auto parts store. Brown color I would think means old water/rust. Just flush and go and upgrade if you want/need to after that.
