Description:
Selling one of a kind custom made ultimate duty ALL BRASS 4 CORE RADIATOR. This is virtual bolt in for Chrysler 87-89 TII G/H/J/Q bodies. This can be used with or without factory TII intercooler. Can obviously be used with a FMIC as well. Even the stock fan shroud provisions are there. Can be easily made to fit other earlier bodies including L-body with top and bottom tab relocation. This should be very simple to modify as mounting tabs are soldered in place. Top, bottom, tanks, inlet, outlet, filler neck, core, everything except mounting tabs and intercooler mounting fasteners are ALL BRASS. Even the factory brass radiators do not have top and bottom plates made of brass. Passenger side tank modified to fit even the biggest 120 amp alternator. Bought this thinking to put it in my Omni, but decided to go another route. This has probably been installed and ran for a very short time, perhaps not though. Unfortunately I do not have any history on this at all. Not sure who made this but they obviously were a master at their craft. I have pressure checked this and submerged in water and it is sealed perfectly. It was then carefully dried. Being brass and four core, this is no lightweight radiator. It is 16 lbs, which is 5+ lbs heavier than factory two core brass radiators. On the plus side, it should last a very, very, long time. I would have painted it, but no one would have believed it to be all brass construction. It does have some minor shelf wear to fins only in couple spots on inboard side of core. No tube damage. This was probably made a very long time ago. No one that I know of today uses brass construction for custom radiators because of the high cost.
So if you’re looking to cool a high horsepower Chrysler turbo car, or want an overkill radiator, this one should fit the bill. Core dimensions are 15.5 x 19.25 x 2.25” Overall dimensions are 17.25 x 21.75 x 2.5”. Core is 3” wider than TII core and about 1” thicker.
Looking for $ sold shipped or best reasonable offer. This would be at least a grand to duplicate today.
