I just got my new radiator off ebay (149) it is all alum., it kinda of looks like it was made from burmese soda cans but well see how it works (got a new rad. and LCE inline temp sender) i'll have some install pics soon.

I'm running that rad and so far I like it. It has two 9in elec. cooling fans and a custom shroud. I've been doing some moderate wheeling on some 100 degree plus days and have been pretty happy with it's preformance.

^^

Did anyone that owns one notice that even thought the listing says its a 2 row it is actually a one row?

yea i just got it in (busy on other projects) fits fine but seems real weak (i wouldnt want anything to hit it ), ill get some pics up tomm.

i also installed my new rx7 alum rad (much thicker core/better const.)
rx7 one

I was contimplating installing that in my rig, but I didnt really trust it....

naah i would pass on it save up for something better or just a OE replacement , it sucks cause i got my rx7 one for $299 and it is beefy the only good toyota one was from LCE and it was just to much $$$$

so far so good here are some pics (bling bling )

Nice rad. And nice mods too.
Which LCE engine is that? and how do you like it?

norcalsvx

the motor is one i built with engbldr. street rv head /261c cam and stock bottom end (i got a good deal on the powder coated valve cover)

Yea I dont know if I would trust a "Burmese soda can" with my engine either! Radiators are cheap...engines aint. Is it really a one row rad? or two?

norcalsvx

yea i keep a real close eye on the temp gauge (so far so good) i even have the old rad. in the bed just in case. its a one row but the truck is running a lil cooler than the old one (the old one was caked in mud) im trying to source a nice 2 row all alum one in the $299-$350 range (lce wants $650 for theirs hahaha)
