    Does anybody know anything about them? I am looking for an aluminum radiator for my Mav and I came across these on partstrain.com. They are decintly priced, but the site does not say anything about how many cores they have or how big the cores are. Here is a link, the radiators are about 3/4 down the page.

    I just installed a Silla aluminum radiator in my Ranchero 289. It was a 2 core. I will not have any data for some time though until I run it for a good month or so.

    I second what Maverick1970 said. I bought one of these and they look sweet. Don't have it mounted yet, but it is a quality radiator. I believe the second batch was ready. Call them and find out. Great to deal with.:)

    I too bought one of these. Show quality...looks great...works even better...and a direct bolt in. I highly recommend them.

    I dont know how I missed that original thread because I sure would have ordered one. I just emailed them to see if there are any left.
