I have a leak in an original radiator (72 BB with manual) Being that the radiator is 35+ years old I think replacement is in order. I have a few questions.
1) Is an original radiator the best bet, they cooled only fairly well back then?
2) Would a modern version like a Be Cool radiator be a smarter path even if I lose the "original" part look (it is still a bolt in) or are other radiators made that look original and cool far better?
3) And.... how much of a PITA is the replacement (I'll buy the beer if ya'll will come help with the project)?
And I'm sure I have just scratched the surface with this inquiry.
