The Cordoba radiator is a surprise, have to say it's cool to see something like that in the mix.

I was thinking that too. If anyone can make Córdoba parts popular, it's Andy.

I bought an aluminum radiator from www.autocityclassic.com. The tanks look closer to stock, than any others I've seen. Fit was perfect, and a stock shroud will bolt up to it. The best part, is they are only around $200. I powder coated the tanks, and brackets, then spray painted the fins.

Andy I am pretty sure this is the pan I had on my 73 big block dart. It was a factory 318 car. I used the shumocker conversion spool mounts, tti headers and Indy EZ heads. The pan fit great and the draglink etc fit great. Didn’t have to dent the pan or anything. I bought the 440 short block from a member on here that had it in his 66 Plymouth B body.

That autocity rad is pretty nice looking, what size tubes does it have? I don’t see mopar stuff on the site.

It has 1" tubes. The site hasn't been updated in a while, but they do have Mopar radiators listed through their eBay store.

Been working on mocking up the EFI engine with a mechanical water pump. I think I have it all sorted out now but it did require some invention.

Trick number one is that I'm using one of my new small diameter 36-1 trigger wheels that is bolted to the back side of a Doty pulley. That leaves the pulley in the stock location and the smaller trigger wheel fits under the factory water pump housing.

Trick number two is a low mount 60 amp Denso alternator. I can go with a low mount since it is EFI so there isn't a mechanical fuel pump. With the fuel pump gone I was able to move the alternator down and in so it fits nice and tight. That makes a nice package in a big block A body car.

Moving the alternator down also opens up a nice window to see the timing mark on the damper. I also developed a bracket for the Holley crank trigger sensor and mounted it on the billet timing cover.

Looks nice as usual. The Doty pulley with your billet 36-1 wheel is one of the fanciest looking things on my engine, makes me wish it was easier seen.

Is the low mount alt brackets something you may end up making and selling in the future?

Yes. I have the 90 amp low mount kit in stock now but I'm still working on the 60 amp version. I haven't added them to my website yet. Might be a little bit of time before I get pictures taken and get the website updated. If you want a 90 amp low mount bracket kit you can shoot me a PM. BB only and it is a different part number between RB and B. The 90 amp uses a Toyota alternator with a V groove pulley. It is a bigger and heavier alternator than the 60 amp Denso unit but has the same plug on the back.

The radiator is back from the radiator shop and is ready to go. I have it mocked up now with a factory 20 inch fan and fan clutch. I have about an inch of clearance between the front of clutch and the radiator core so I'll probably order a shorter clutch from Hayden. I might also drop down to a 19 inch fan just for some extra clearance around the shroud. Other than that I think it is a go.

Here is a shot of the new roll bar and tin work. Shifter is also mounted in the car in this picture. Interior is getting closer to being finished. Rear of the car is basically finished. Still need to finish up the engine bay.

The 512 inch low deck engine is just about ready to go to the dyno. Need to screw on the correct oil pan and finish up a couple of details. This is a pump gas, hyd cam engine with old Mopar aluminum heads. The heads were ported by Modern about 15 years ago. I don't remember the compression ratio on this engine, maybe around 10:1? I'll have to look it up. It should make around 575 hp on the dyno. It made 485 rwhp on the chassis dyno earlier this year in my Coronet but that was with cast iron manifolds.

Hello Andy

-When will you start to sell the 90Amp low mount kits? Looked at your web page but could not find them.

Also -Any idea if this kit would work with a CVR electric water pump with out the belt interfering with the pump casing?

Thank you!

/Tom

I have the kits in stock but I haven't printed out instructions yet or updated the website. Never used a CVR electric water pump but it should fit if the electric motor isn't too big.
