Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Radiator question



Wish I had one of them "pick-a-part' close to me so I could get a set of those fans for all four of my AMCs.

My 88 Eagle has a factory three core radiator also, I like the extra rows on many of my AMCs, as if you have ever been stuck in Houston traffic, nuff said. I also run electric fans on most of my cars, you can get the small Hyundai fans for about $5 each at pick a parts, real easy to install also, and watch the temp gauge drop when stuck on I-10 on a day like today when it is 96 degrees.......

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.

I thought an A/C radiator was the same as a V8 one?

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.
