im after some info on alloy radiator cores, im thinking of making one / two for my single seater track car and the space is tight, anyone know where i can get them at a good price.
The rest of the parts i can make.

Thanks in advance Joe

cheap method would be to buy a standard alloy one with the plastic sides, strip the plastic from it and you have a core to work with

That's quite a common approach with the grassers. However, you have to watch that that the individual tubes are not sealed with small rubber seals as they dont like the heat of welding. There is somewhere that does wrc type 4 row cores but I can't remember who they are. If I havent let you know tomorrow drop me a text to remind me. They're not that cheap though!
