i had one for a while and it was prpbably less efficient than the std 2 row copper and brass one! once it got hot it stayed hot longer than the std one.

I got some 52mm core, triple flow ally radiators made up to suit GQs with TD42s. The end tanks are made from 3mm Ally sheet, not thin crap like some others i've seen from so called ally radiator experts. All the mounts are strong as. Come with billet filler neck. The factory shroud even fits as well.

They work a treat and only cost $660 each

cheers
