Sources for vanagon radiators, any upgrades?

Post by myke_w »

Like title begs, I am looking for sources for vanagon diesel radiators. Everything I've found so far seems pretty steep.
Is there any way to upgrade to a later style for better cooling while I'm at it?
What are your thoughts?

You might want to post this on the diesel-vanagon yahoo group. There are a few folks who are very well versed in the differences and challenges in swapping to later rads. I assume you have an '82. Lot's of folks upgrade to the later ones. I have never had an '82 so have not had to meet the challenge.
