This radiator will fit both original big block and small block cars, as well as all 67 - 69 firebirds. This unit is built using the HD big block core from our big block 1st gen fbody radiator handle the most demanding summer conditions with the A/C blasting. This bolts in directly - no holes to drill or a trip to the hardware store for a parts hunt or drilling holes in your core support.

Like all of our radiators, it's made with pride in the USA with USA made cores.

FAQ

We've been offering our Entropy USA made radiators on Ebay for over five years. We make what we sell and all of our radiators are made in house. We've sold 1000s of radiators to many repeat customers and referrals of customers.

How can your radiator be half the price of X-Cool if it's a high quality unit?

Quite simply, we don't have a bunch of middle men fleecing money out of your pockets and running the price up. With a typical high performance product company, there are a bunch of distribution middle man that don't add any value to the product but since they need a slice of the pie, they run the price up. By selling directly to our customers without wholesalers, warehouse distributors, jobbers, product represenatives, etc, in the way, we can keep our costs way down. We also don't have a big marketing budget that most companies employ, which also runs the price you pay up.

How does your radiator compare to the same X-Cool brand cooling module that is twice the price?

Our units are fully precision TIG welded, made with heavy duty cores and purpose built for the application.These days, many high performance radiator companies only TIG weld the top section of the radiator and have unskilled workers MIG weld the rest of the radiator. We do not do this. Our radiators are 100% TIG welded, made with high grade aluminum alloy tanks, billet machined components and will hold their own next to any familiar brand unit costing 2X or 3X more.

What type of cap and coolant do you recommend using?

An 18 PSI or higher cap is recommended. Prestone coolant is recommended for it's superior corrosion resistance.

Do you make custom radiators?

Yes we welcome custom inquiries. Just ask.
