looks like it is aluminium but when i went to the nulon site it said it has a brass radiator
anyone know if it is aluminium or not?

if it has plastic tanks its alloy, if it has metal tanks, its brass

thats what i thought.
it has plastic tanks (top and bottom u mean?)
i wonder why the nulon site would recomend green coolant rather than the more expensive red coolant
it even says green coolant for the new 4.8

plastic core
nah alloy tanks are usually custom jobs that means full alloy radiator
If its a black center and tanks, its brass/copper
if its a silver coloured middle and black plastic tanks, its alloy.
i don't think GU came with brass tanks, unless you have the radiator replaced. would love to have an alloy rad for mine to cool it down quicker
