I bought one of Engineered cooling products 26" 2 row of 1" tubes. bare minimum I could get for use with the Evan's waterless coolant system and it works would have prefered 1.5: tubes in the config I needed. They have a good write up on the why's and how's.

If you are using the factory 26" HD radiator and not having any issues then why switch? Copper /Brass / Antifreeze with inhibitors will work great until the inhibitors break down and your block begins to rust out. ever wonder why a typical rebuild was around 100k miles?
Just some reading for those on the fence and needing some advice.

Can this be a sticky? since the information is a basis for everyone's research on making this type of decision for their system.
