What heater core?

the creature · 11-20-2001, 05:16 AM

I have looked at the DD heater core, that cost 35$, the Liquidcool's lemthan (or somthing)that cost 36$ and have places where you can festen it.
I allso looked at the Big Mamma, that cost 50$.

Are there other sites that sells heater cores? Aren't there a site, d-tek or somthing, that also sells those radiators?

What do you think about those here? Whice is better then the others?

you should try the local auto parts store. AutoZone is a good one. Bring a picture of something close to what you want and in 5 minutes they'll have 3-5 options, usually below $30. You may have to redo the fittings but that isn't too hard.

Yah do you mind doing some modding or do you prefer to buy a pre-modded one?

I was thinking of somthing that has the same fitting that I needs installed (3/8"), if it has some holes, so it easy the installing to the cabinet would be good.

Does the heater core from Liquidcool preform compared ageinst the others? It looks better (new) ageins the other rads.

The AutoZone, does they ship international? If so does anybody know their shipping prices?

Just my 2 cents...

I just got my system running(except for my video ram that i crushed), and will have pics soon. I decided to go with the heatercore over at D-Tek customs http://www.dtekcustoms.com/. It was a bit pricey, but w/ a shroud already built, I went the easy route.

BTW, the rad rocks.
