Default Re: Proper rad for L-78 nova

There are a few choices in the aftermarket for replacement radiators...prices vary with quality for sure.

Original units are hard to come by and command a premium if the seller knows what they have. If you go the OEM route you should know there is a date code on the pass. side tank that indicates the month of production. A real factory radiator is hard to find...the proper date for your car, even harder! Most survivor radiators have been re-cored at some time and may actually be a 4 core now...the tanks are where the money is and it is a bonus if the original ZD tag and top rail are in place.

Hope this helps..wilma
