IS THERE ANYONE OUT THERE THAT CAN SUPPLY MR INFO 3 CORE GQ/GU RADIATORS

wat specific info are u after?
thats a very broad statement.....

also wat motor we talking here? injected / carbi / diesel etc etc

screwy

I belive the GQ TD42 radiator is the better of the lot. Have heard some of the comp petrol turbos have modded these to work with the TB42.

core gu 350 chev strocke straight gas auto!! Is that enough info??

Did nissan ever make a 4 core?

Nobody said anything about 4 core radiators but i was given a quote of around $675 for a custom 3 core

I just picked up a Diesel radiator made in Adelaide for a customer and people swear by them for cooling . $490. He is using it on a 302 Clevo.

Once again is std or f**k of big with no tolerance 302 verses 350 strocker full hous i am also going to super charge it soon!!! :armsup: :armsup:

so when are we gunna see this beast in action, hehe

Verry soon have 2 weekend soff to do heeps of work but still being stuffed around by radiator mobs . As soon as you tell them that is a 350 chev with a 400 billet crank roller camm and rockers inport heads ready to produce 650 brake hp as in my drage car they say im not sure if anything will keep it cool are you f**king mad for puting that in ? No just pissed .

cool, sounds good

How was it kept cool in the Drag car Champ.

Go and spend a $1000 on an all alloy radiator and go from there.

Or go and by a commodore radiator as they are pushing 295Kw.

You seem to be in the performance game why not ask what they use.

been there done that a gu rad is heaps bigger than com's

We also filled the cooling system with straigt coolant with a tripple core radiator but then the motor only ran for a couple of mins

Also running on methenole fule which the more you put in the cooler it runs

BigPig, a friend of ours was running a 378 cube Cleveland (normally aspirated) in a full body and interior XW Falcon with a 4 core brass/copper radiator which he couldn't keep cool. It's over 500 bhp and is running consistent 10.9 quarters. We bought a PWR core and header tank assembly. (57mm thick) (2 cores, each core 26mm long) We welded it together because we can and with twin AU Falcon thermo fans he can now drive it through a long queue at Macca's drive through without it overheating. The fans just cut in and cut out.
This core is the same one the supercars use for their endurance races except they also have internal dimpling on the tubes (an extra core cost of 20 %)

thanks andrew could you pls get name and ph if at all posable or even get me a price your self

Your best bet would be to give PWR in QLD a ring and ask what they have for GQ or GU as they have both built up as a complete unit. Unfortunately, they don't do anyone any deals and you could buy one for the same price that I could. Most of the stuff we do is custom build ups and the price they charge for custom cores is staggering, but they're so damn good at cooling. As an example I've just fitted a custom radiator to the guy next door at work's 460 cube big block 1960's F100 and the core cost (57mm thick) with a billet radiator cap neck was just under $600 and that was without all the work I put in to build up the radiator. (if I had wanted the dimple tubes it would have been an extra 20% on top of that)
Just make sure you get the 57mm thick core for your V8 application. and if GU one will fit in a GQ as it's top to bottom tanks versus crossflow for the GQ.
Regards Andrew.

Ihave a gu but all that info is tops .

thanks heaps

We have a customer that has a gu patrol that kept getting hot. We tried an ARE radiator and it failed. Aussie dessert coolers made a radiator for us to fit and we just laughed at it when it arrived. PWR supplied a radiator that finally worked. The customer can sit on 160 to 175km/h for 48km with out the temp rising. PWR make heaps of this radiator and have given it its own part number. It all comes down to FPI Fins per inch. Contact PWR and save a heap of time.

lso very good info thanks all input is welcom as i have ahd trouble keeping big boost cars cool

Straight Water cools better than straight coolant. Too much coolant acts as an insulator.

Bazzle

PLS show ratio for max cooling

Scott ,u will have to make your exhaust headers up.block huggers dont fit that marks suppied..engine mount is the prob as u mentioned to me..

PWR are the way to go

no shit did you come down in the rain tonight I told you that last time

Buy a nissan and you will understand

dip _ _ _ _ i was leting u know that marks block huggers r no differnt 2 std block hug, as u asked.


understand the problems

sorry dick sucker but i already knew that due to the fact of trying 5x different sets of huggers that gauranteed they would fit but once again i was right then told them to fuck off i dont want your sponsership!!!
