    I've used a number of them, No problems so far. They do a good job of cooling, fit and finish could be a bit better, but then they couldn't sell them at such a low price. I've picked them up on eBay brand new for $150.00. IMO a good radiator for the money.

    How about filler necks? Aren't they delivered without that?

    But they claim it has no filler neck. It's a good price tow. If it has the quality.

    Summits private label rad is a northern. I bought one for my wife's 64 falcon. I am not impressed with the fit and finish either, but the price was right. If it is reliable, I'll be happy with it.

    I guess they don't on that application, Staleg. I was referring to the universal ones used for other cars. I would contact the seller on that one and see how much they sell the filler neck for. The reason they are not offering a filler neck installed is people have so many different ideas on where they should be placed. Any shop that does tig welding would be able to install the filler neck for you....
