Hi rmrunner,

Changing the head and bottom caps of those plastic radiators, is that a safe choice?
I remember when the head of my radiator started to leak I had the entire radiator replaced with a two core radiator built by Singh's Radiator shop in Bamboo Junction, La Romaine for $1500.
The job was well done and I never had any problem with my radiator ever again, even up to the time I sold my buggy.
How good is such a job as compared to totally rebuilding the radiator?

Comments appreciated!

Regards,

Hi Turbosingh,
Was that foreign used radiator one with a plastic head or metal two core?

Daily Driver? Go back original plastic top, that plastic is put there for a reason.

Considering I paid $1500 for my two core radiator, I believe that you got a really good deal at that.
Petty I didn't have that nfo when I needed a new radiator.
Well we all know now, Thanxs for the Heads Up!!
