ALuminum Radiator Instalation

[67GTV]

The new radiator installation looks great Eliseo! I like those blue hoses too. Let us know how cool she runs now.

I was wondering about the old radiator. Was that a stock radiator for a Giulietta? I ask because of the customized top radiator hose going across like that. I've never seen that set up before.

Hi Kai,

The "original" radiator did have some modifications:
-No filler neck, it has a remote unit.
-The inlet I believe is the same, it is a 101, not a 750 and the configuration changed...I think so.

I hope I can test it soon, I was told my local track has a race this weekend so it will have to wait till next one……DARN!!!!

Hi all,

I finally got a chance to go test the new radiator!

It was an open test day at our local track and there were also some bikes out there so we had ½ hr. intervals.

I was the first one out on a very dirty and muddy track. I took it very easy and wanted to make sure we did not have any leaks. Came in and verified all to be fine.

Second time out I started to go faster (to my standards) and the water temp did not even go over 180°! Oil temp was around 200°.

Third time out I did go flat out and only managed to get the water temp to 190°!!! Now I will have to cover it a bit to get in the 200° range.

I am very happy with the final outcome, the product I got from Ron Davis Radiators was good and the temps came down to what I was told they would do.

Happy racing to all………..

Regards,
