Hi guys,

My radiator has blown and I've been asked to strip it out from a local radiator specialist who's willing to have a look at it for me. I've gone to take it out today and realised that there's actually two radiators, one behind the other. Is this normal and does anyone recommend where I can get new form incase this specialist is no help. It's a 5.7 by the way.

Thanks for any help.

Car Details:1986 Camaro, bought into Spain by me in 1993.
305 replaced by a 355, 750 Demon carb, RPM AirGap intake, Brodix heads, Hedman Hedders, 3" Flowmaster exhaust.
Wheels are Summit aluminium 5 spokes, tyres are 245 rear 225 front BF Goodrich.
B/M transmission, battery relocated to the rear, GoodMark 4" cowl steel hood.
Location:Spain East Coast
The front skinnier "rad" is your air conditioning condenser.

I had my original blow on me too, but I opted for an all aluminium replacement.

If you want an original try http://www.rockauto.com/?ref=logo

As low as €75.08 before shipping etc.

No, just the big one will need replacing (the one with a big fat pipe on the top corner and another big pipe on the opposite bottom corner). The small one is for the AC system only and they don't cross paths. Contact Rocky (American Technique) in Watford, tell him Ray from the Camaro club sent you. He's always got a few 3rd gens in for breaking so can provide a used one or a new one.
