velocejoe Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 So it looks like finding a radiator is impossible and I am not fixing the one I have due to the fact that it needs complete restoration at the tune of nearly $400. I read somewhere that the 520 trucks have used Prelude radiators??? Maybe I read 320 truck can too?? Can anyone confirm this or has anyone done this swap. This makes the most sense at this juncture. If not, I'm going to take the measurements and find one that works. There has to be something that will swap in, Geo, Honda, whatever. P.S. If anyone has a good radiator.....I'm ready to purchase. 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 $400? Wut! Ouch. Sorry I can't be more help. Check in at Speedway. They have a ton of Hot Rod-ish radiators. See which fits closest, go from there. Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 Your just going to have to measure your 320 radiator and go to the wrecking yard and start looking for something that will work., if you were doing a engine swap, you likely would have to do this anyway. Check the prelude radiator and tell us how it measures up. $400? Wut! Ouch. Sorry I can't be more help. Check in at Speedway. They have a ton of Hot Rod-ish radiators. See which fits closest, go from there. Yea, $400.00 would be a complete re-core, so basically it would be new, re-cores are expensive these days. Quote Link to comment

I agree. http://www.summitracing.com/ or http://www.speedwaymotors.com/ ought to be able to supply you with a generic aluminum radiator for under $200. Quote Link to comment
