I like the idea of having two 'small'(1/2 of 'big') rads in parallel rather than one 'big' because it effectivly gives you twice the time water's 'in~rad' comparitivly does'nt it?. Same radiator surface area but flow is cut by half in each one doubling time spent there, how much do you think this equates to cooling capacity?, not double cause it's not directly comparable is it?,flow to BTU(or whatever it is.what does BTU stand for?). it may even be less restrictive. if it's not as restrictive at a lower flow as it is at a higher flow?(Hmm?, they'd equal out though would'nt they?). I don't know about pressure drop though, I'd have thought it would negate itself as long as it rejoins to a 1/2 tube(same as prior to split).

Can someone enlighten me to any mistakes or anything pertinant?, or direct me to a previous post please?(you must get tired of repeating yourselves )...
