Any one use one of these?

Right now I use a Mazda MPV radiator. And while its light, its just one row 1" is not really cutting it.

Its either buy a golf cart to tow up , or get a bigger rad. These Jegs are two row 1" so its basically double what I have now.

Me as well, a cross flow aluminum northern, for about the same price. It's been one of the better pieces on my car....

I have had two of them, one for the smallblock and one for the bigblock and both were well built and did a fine job. up

Yea I know, I'm 3150 now, and that's 125lbs overweight for the class. I know adding a two row rad and I'll be close to 3200..... Wrong direction lol

Depending on where I park its 100 to 120 when I get in the lanes. Thankfully they are down hill so I don't have to fire it until it's at the water ready for a burnout. I've been making passes at 110 to 120 and get back to the trailer at 150-160

The rad in the car now is 11lbs and 1" but one row. The jegs rad is 1" but two row, and weighs 17 lbs. so prob 6lbs and 6. For another gallon of water capacity? Might run real cool for only 12-15lbs more. ?

??? WHY SO HIGH? 170*

I had the fan in front as a pusher, im switching it to the back as a puller now.
Also im going to start taking the upper hose off and put some water thru the engine to get the temp down as much as possible.
I know guys using the water tank and they are going down the track at 70- 80*...However, the tank set up is heavy and needs tow up and back, unless its a HUGE tank and I cant afford any more weight !
