Post by yno26galant »

hey guys as some know the galants radiator let go on me about 2months ago and chasing a another replacement radiator cause its way to expensive to get the one that's in there re-cored. I'm not sure what the radiator that i have is out of. :(

its running a 2.6 and the front has already been modified to have a bigger radiator in there. please any further questions will be answer asap or any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.



regards james.

Hi James,
Best bet is often to take the existing machine to a radiator guy and get them to match it up. Normally it's pretty easy to get something that will fit.
Good luck!

Look on ebay? You can get aluminium radiators for less than the cost of a re-core. Just type in 'gallant aluminium radiator' or just 'aluminium radiator' look at where your outlet and inlet are, click on any radiator that you like the look of and look in 'users other items' and see if they list your model, or if they have the right dimensions and in/out let placement that you can fit in? (H) I saw one for a gallant at $154 with free delivery..... bargain.... if it arrives and is less than suitable or crud quality, you complain to the seller or ebay and you will get another, and another and usually you don't have to send old ones back...

PWR radiators are the go. They make anything you want. Just give them horsepower and what the car would be for drag circuit or street.

Ha ha, you never know! A lot of the time there are matching parts between cars, so you might get lucky. Or need to go to Russia... :)
