    Radiator help?

    I need a new radiator for my '74 454 4 speed and need your input on which supplier to use, Corvette Central, Dr. Rebuild, etc. I want to keep the car as original looking as possible so that is very inportant, also what other parts should be replaced at the same time, like A/C condenser, etc.

      I would not replace the condenser if it was not leaking or the fins rotted off. You do not have to open the A/C system to change the radiator so save your self a few bucks.

        DeWitts.
        I purchased their radiator for my 68 restoration and the radiator they sent me was IDENTICAL to the factory original I removed right down to every last detail. I have a small block with A/C so it uses the same radiator as the big block. I was extremeley pleased with their rapid service and the quality of the product I received. I recommend them.

            Without a doubt, DeWitts. I picked mine up at Carlisle for my 65 and dated etc within the hour. Tom's a great guy and has great products!

              Ready to buy. How can I get a discount? Also want to buy hoses, clamps, and an overflow tank at the same time.

                Just call Tom and ask - buying a package as you describe improves your odds!

                  Chris,
                  I bought my radiator and overflow tank last year at Bloomington and got a "show special" price from Tom. Also there was a discount coupon for $50.00 in the show flyer. There was also the added benefit of no shipping charge and Michigan tax as I am a Michigan resident.Tom is a nice guy to do business with and as stated earlier he date coded right at the show.So if you check his website he lists the shows he attends and you might get a discount that way.
