Thread: Radiator and Cond combo unit

If you don't feel comfortable stuffing this thing in the grill; let me offer a suggestion. Mount it below, out of sight and supply cooling fan air to it. Too many salvage yards have Honda, Toyota, etc stuff to make it work. Aftermarket stuff is readily available to do this. Joe, thanks for the post. it always helps to get the right info.

isn't amazing all the free info that floats out there in the BIGG WWW .
i've dug this info up a few times before, it just amazes me the goverment doesn't think we know they are lieing to us all awhile it's the goverment itself that also gives us the info that tells us it's not really as bad as they're telling everyone .


the below came from THIS PAGE


The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences is one of the National Institutes of Health within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The National Toxicology Program is headquartered on the NIEHS campus in Research Triangle Park, NC.


which gave us the info in the last paragraph of my last post.

now i will say that that same page also told us the below,

Freon is about 4 times heavier than air, so it is going to sink to the floor initially, though it is highly volatile and will disperse rapidly. What this means is that the closer to the floor that you are, the more Freon you are likely to breathe in. This is a concern especially for children and pets, children because they are smaller and thus require smaller doses for acute effects to occur, and pets, especially dogs, because they are more sensitive to the heart sensitizing effects of Freon than humans are.

but honestly does any household have a refrigerator or freezer in their their homes that would emit enough freon at one time to any harm to a child or animal??? and if it would then that child or animal had their faces at the point of rupture & couldn't move away from it , PLEASEEEEEEEE......joe

I have a 31 "A" w the Walker Cobra combo, works good ,I can post model # later today or 4/28 as I am @ my office & do not have Hotrod info here .I can send you pictures of car if you give e-mail address as I am not computer smart enough to know how to post.

Sent ya a pm with my email thanks again 31

Rads have come a long way. Years ago a big block alone needed a rad that was about 5" thick. I have noticed with new technology big blocks with air are using much smaller cooling units. Mine came from Cool Craft and while I have room for a condenser I would not mind using one with the condenser built in.

Thanks John i really am leaning this way also . The use of the original shell is utmost importance . With walker and coolcraft placing there names on them they must have something right .

Nice info 2many. I would like to you this in some of my other interests. And we think big oil is scamming us. This is just one company!!! It's probably cost each of us about $500 extra for no good reason for any post '85 car.

Here is link to a thread here from a few weeks ago on radiator. This gentleman knows his stuff and has presented it very well.

the thing that gets me is the oil found here in the states goes overseas while we import ours , WTF is that. OOOOOH that's right the US Oil Companies could care less about the USA, they only care about the almighty $$$$$$$$.
We import more oil from Canada then any other single country, BUT IFwe combine what we get from the Middle Eastern countries we do import more oil from them...joe
