Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Radiator question

My 258 gremmie was ordered and came with the three core A/C radiator.

I thought so too, but when I pulled my factory V8 rad it was only a two row core. I paid extra for the heavy duty cooling system (according to my window sticker). I've got a three row core rad in there now. I think it's better to be safe than sorry. 'The Mix'

That is my thought also, Doc. At least that is what they told me when I ordered my Gremmie in '73.

Bill so long as it is out of an A/C car you should have one big enough. Up in "The Falls " all I run is a 160 and I am warm enough.

I've rebuilt the top end of my 232 six and am installing pretty much all new accessories including an NOS AC compressor I won on eBay. Once the car is repainted, I'll be reinstalling everything including replacing the outside AC coils as well as the radiator as both are pretty much shot. I'd like to get a heavy duty radiator to handle the Texas summer heat so was thinking of doing a V8 radiator. Are the hose fitting locations for a V8 cylinder radiator the same as for the six? Also, I picked up a 160 degree thermostat but am wondering if that might be just a bit too cool....? Any suggestions on radiator size? Thanks.
