Bling Bling Radiator

[Cole]

Well I think I finally made up my mind on which radiator I want.
I have been leaning toward the BeCool until I found out how much it was gonna cost and there customer service Sucks ASS.
Looks like I am gonna order this Ron Davis.
Guys there seem cool and know there ****. Only thing is there a month out.
34" wide x 19" tall x 3" thick (7.5" thick including fan)
Standard filler neck
Chevy double pass style outlets
1.5" inlet & outlet diameter
Dual 16" Spal fans - 4720 CFM combined
2 rows of 1" wide tubes

If there were such thing as radiator sex.... that would pretty much be it !!

$?

 

[P]

What was the pimp rad builder featured in Dirt Sports recently ?? You checked anyone else ?

 

[Cole]

Its around $1,100 with wiring for the fans.

 

[blacksheep10]

nice. it is a bitch to use the generic with pass lower/driver upper with those engines. not that I've done that twice now or anything.
and only a grand
still nice

 

[Cole]

Needless to say I am over my budget and still have some more stuff to get along with paying Woodlee.
I will be riding on stock shafts for a while longer. Almost had enough money to buy the biguns.
Oh Well.

 

[P]

One part at a time bubba... one part at a time. ;D


I still havent figured out why people say they have a budget.... I have never seen ANYTHING internal combustion stick to a budget.

You guys been under the hood of the new GM trucks?
Freaking badass radiators with dual pull fans.

 

[BamaTJ]

That radiator makes coolant sexy!!

 

[P]

really...**** my boss has a 2500 z71 gasser right now for media review, super nice truck Ill have to pop the hood and check it out tommorow.

Here ya go.
In front of a 5.3 on an '07 Tahoe. **** is bling. Now find one wrecked out from the behind.

 

[P]

Man if you had the space that is nice. 8) I bet its thick as balls..

 

[blacksheep10]

find the space behind the seat.

How much is your engine swap now cole? when someone shot you 2K a couple months ago I said bah and threw out an "on crack" comment. course I was doing cabot's 5.3 swap then

 

[InDaShop]

Kelly's install on Cabot's is factory clean. DAMN! And when you spin the key and she jumps to life with a dull roar. MMMMMM! Me likes it so much, porn for the ears!

Yeah those chevy radaitors with the pullers will quickly find their way behind some ****, after they enter the recycling world.
**** Cole $1100 for a Ron Davis, DAMN! Good call though they make the best.

 

[BamaTJ]

Speaking of 5.3's what do those bitches run? I am thinking that will be the motor in my future buggy....

 

[P]

Man Ben found one for 700 complete,,,, they go all the way to 1200 just depends on who you know really.

 

[Cole]

Well lets see. I have 4grand in my motor that includes the wiring harness work and buying a new gas pedal assembly that was $340. Bought a Brand New all aluminum KRC pump $345, PSC resevoir $165, $1,100 for radiator.
Still have to buy New fuel pump that is $300, and have a custom Fuel Cell built. Then you have all the little stuff like hoses and ****. Plus pay Woodlee. Which I don't mind at all because I know it will be done right and I want have to worry about it. I figure by the time I am done I will have 8 grand in it. Could have paid my truck off.
Oh well you only live once.

 

[blacksheep10]

agreed.

you will most likely pay a grand for a good 5.3, '04-06 with 50K or less on it with brain, harness, accessories, exhaust, cats, 02's (important, $100 apiece ) fan, air intake and MAF (another hundo). it is better to go somewhere that you know will give you everything with it than buying the first cheap one that comes along. getting all the sensors makes the engine cost half as much as otherwise. ask cole on his pedal.

 

[BamaTJ]

IF you find one up there let me know Kelly...
