Not for sure if you mean rows or tubes. A 26” 2 row 1” tubes like the ones from Made in the USA BeCool Radiators can easily cool 1000 HP motors idling in the Mojove Desert with the correct fans and so forth. The rows are 1.25” but the tubes are 1” if that makes sense.
Glen Ray does good work and that radiator looks great but they are local shops all over the USA as others have mentioned that, don’t need to advertise, save you alot of money because they are local, been in the business as long or longer and do just as good or better work then Glen Ray. You may not be as fortunate as I am but I have at least 5 people within 30 minutes of me that can recore and 2 of them is on par with GR, 1 maybe better, he owns a few Mopars and recores radiators for my dads heavy equipment. If I ever get back over to his shop I’ll take a pic of his GTX and RR radiator.
Mine was from Entropy, true 1.25" tubes w .25" space between the 2 rows making the core 2.75" thick. I am well aware of what they will cool. Most on here, over 98%, don't drive in temps over 105° n think that's hot. I'm assuming you are reading their web page propaganda. Kinda like all the e-fan companies that "claim" their fans will cool 1,000hp w a/c. I unfortunately had to use trial n error w 3 different aluminum radiators and 3 different shrouded e-fans, all of which made certain claims. Entropy radiator w factory shroud and 19" direct drive mechanical fan cool mine. No e-fan would work. 2 of the radiators did not work.
Why would I assume when BeCool is exactly what I run. Most people who have trouble running E-Fans don’t have enough idling amps in their alternators. It’s hard to meet that claim of say 3000 cfm or whatever it is when your alternator is only letting your fans put out half that or less at idle.
So your engine has 1,000hp and you drive it in 120° summer temps? As for e-fans, on 66-67 b bodies w big blocks, the shape of the flat square shroud and the front of the cars creates a high pressure zone behind the radiator restricting airflow at speeds over 40mph. At idle they actually work. Again, real world experience in 120+ daily temps.
Nice!
Glen-RAY also offers a max cooling core assembled to your top and bottom tanks, that will cool better than the origional. REMEMBER....its not the number of tubes but the fins per inch (the WW folded items between the tubes) that determine the efficiency......Suggest you call Glenn Ray and talk with Bob....he'll quote price/delivery over the phone....great company excellent warranty.
Yes they have but in my old age I have noticed that finding a real radiator shop with a real radiator man has gone the same way as trying to find a real parts man, or even a real tire man.
i wouldgo with a 3 row copper /brass if i was u so many of the aluminum r gm cross flow & dont cool right
I do like this double fan option. Does this fit on 22" and 26" rads?
Actually copper/brass radiator is more conductive than aluminum. However they do not have the structural strength to make the tubes in the core the same as the aluminum and the aluminum is cheaper.
