banzai510(hainz) Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 "rods discount dartsun "sells rebuilt rads and also 3 core. dont know if he still around. But Rods Discount is a oxymoron as I dont see the discount in his other stuff he sells most 510 rads are all chinese or singapore. Modine (USA) went out of bussniess and thats what I have . Datsun LLC sells the aluminum ones for a decent price(chinese) but waiting to see the relaibily on these myself. find one that soembody is doing a KA swap and getting rid of it. a good repair shop can solder them back together if top and bottoms are good, They know by looking at them there use to be a Griffen substitute and people clamped on and used different hoses but I never looked into it myself as I liked the stock rads.

Dantheman Posted May 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 Thanks, I was hoping for some one doing a swap would let theres go. I took mine to a shop in Orange today and was told that the cores were no longer available. He is going to call around on Monday. Mine does not leak real bad, but looks terrable as the fan hit at some point. Dan Link to comment
