aluminum stacked plate for my unablock...

hemophilic · 07-13-2002, 01:50 AM

Well, after searching for days about aluminum radiators I stumbled across "stacked plate" coolers. I don't like the regular oil coolers that are a single winding pipe with fins attached so I'm down to this. I want a heatercore made out of aluminum but they don't exist apprently. So my question is...

Will a stacked plate 4x4 (or the 4x11) with unablock cool my 1.4 TBird OC'd?

If so where should I look to get them real cheap? I don't want to turn to theft but I may!

there's tons of aluminum heatercores. most OEM cores are made of ALU. Look for OEM parts.

Actually the vast majority of heatercores are made of Aluminium. Its fairly difficult to find copper ones, thats why people tend to buy them online. What on Earth are you talking about

redleader - I went to a bunch of auto stores yesterday and all of them weren't sure where to get an aluminum heatercore but they showed me tons of copper ones. Thats why I said....
"they don't exist apprently"

Actually the vast majority are aluminum fin and copper core. I need an aluminum CORE. I dont care about the fins.

mkosem - Thats what I thought. So I went back today inquiring about coolers and stack plates or aluminum heatercores. I got a different guy who knew exactly what I wanted. He said most late-model chevy's have aluminum heatercores and VOILA! I now have my shiznit.

I think I found the most perfect heatercore ever (except that its really expensive

).

You may opt for a custom aluminum radiator to get the specific functions that you need.
