After my run through Las Vegas (at about 120 degrees I'm told) this past week, it appears my radiator core sprung a leak.

Do we take this in to a radiator shop for repair, or must we buy a new one? Any options for upgrades?

Thanks

 
easy money.....take it off....bring it to a repair shop...thirty bucks later....reinstall.

Depending on the size and location of the leak, a little JB Weld might do the trick too, and no R/R needed.

 
Well thats good to know. I'll pass on the JB weld and spring for a professional repair though.

Off to the garage to pull it off.

I think I'll pull my header while its exposed, for the electric cutout mod I have planned.

I'll post a video when done so you can hear the roar.

Now to find a good radiator shop and muffler shop.

Thanks,

Jim
