The original subject was "8N radiator".
I bought a replacement radiator for an 8n eight years a
go. The replacement weighed about half as much as the
original.
The only problem I had was the filler neck was soldered in
wrong. Made the winged radiator cap sit sideways. I heated
the neck and turned it.
The aftermarket shroud fit the replacement radiator. The
radiator has held up well.
I took the original radiator to the radiator shop to have
it repaired for a spare. BIG MISTAKE!!!!
It cost me over $300 to have the radiator boiled out,leak
repaired,and painted. The replacement radiator was only
$199.00.
