The Plymouth is alive and well. I'm still rocking the original 86,000 mile 318, but now she's topped off with an Edelbrock aluminum intake and 600 cfm Edelbrock carb. I've also installed Flowtech full length headers, all stainless steel exhaust out the back with factory tips and Magnaflow mufflers. There's still work to be done of course, I think I need to replace the radiator before it gets very warm out.
I think the best bang for your buck on a radiator would be a griffin aluminum 4row!

Thanks Keane!
And David, that very well may be what goes in it. I already know the factory radiator isn't in the greatest of shape and there's no shroud or fan clutch. Plus I'm not sure what the impellers on the water pump look like after being on the engine for 44 years. lol

HI Kerry: GOOD to hear you & the girls are getting along so well . Hey a little lesson from an old Hot Rodder. I fan shroud does wonders! I know that for a fact. I had the wrong one on my Chevelle. it wasn't pulling enough air. My car was running Hot for a couple of days in the summer. A friend of mine told me he had another one if I wanted to try it. I did and never looked back. The temps were right around 192 all day long You don't need a clutch fan. At least I didn't and it ran great!

Hey Rick, how's it going. Thanks for the advice, I had heard shrouds can work wonders sometimes.
