The file is 148mb. You have somewhere I can upload it for you? Alternatively, all I did was use "Down Them All" which is an add on in Firefox. I changed the settings to download just the large files and nothing else. Took just a few minutes to get all of them.

Little late to the party but great looking T. At some point I have to get a white T to park next to the GN.

A/C, Heating and Cooling / Re: Opinions on AlRadCO radiator?

« on: October 04 2012, 12:11:01 AM »

Whats the price? Can you get it with only 1 cooler or no coolers? Just curious??
My stocker still works fine but I don't use the oil or trans coolers on it.

$575 for the black version, I think. (Too lazy to click right now)

I have all new oil cooler lines, etc, and want to use the setup. If I wasn't, I would just get an F-Body radiator and be done with it.

My tranny cooler lines will be -6AN - so i can move them around if need be.

Actually the standard finish with both coolers is only $425 right now. If you add the black powder coated finish, it's only another $75. For those of you that know powder coating, you know that's a good price. So $500 if you want it in black. We also offer a chrome powder finish which is like a polished version, but much more durable.

This isn't a Chinese radiator. These are built right here, specifically for our cars. Drop in installation. Both coolers just like stock.
Yes I have a 87 GN myself as well. Can you start to tell I love these cars just a little bit???

Thanks for the good words.

BTW, I'll email you about sponsoring the site as well. Here's a sneak peek of the dual fans we're about to release. All black on our black radiator too.

I posted this in Tech - because there's over 1100 photos at this link - great, visual reference material.

I want to contact the owner and see if they will send the pics zipped to me...

I'm downloading all the pics right now. If you want them just drop me a line. peter@alradco.com

I think you kind of set up yourself for a guessing game of how much boost you can run safely. By that I mean when I had my GN tuned, I knew exactly how much boost I could run on 91, 100, and C16. Especially with E85 since you need to run more fuel, just seems like you would have to really over think it.
