All,

Called Spectra and got some info on that rad. Here are the specs:

-1 row, 1" thick, all-aluminum construction
-3/4" tubing in rad

The guy was pretty sure it flowed/cooled better than stock (SE or SVT). He mentioned it would flow/cool better than a 2-row copper rad (suggesting that is in the SE or SVT? Is it??). His reasoning is that the stock rad uses smaller tubing (5/8th" or less) vs. the Spectra rad using 3/4" tubing.

Can someone put their knowledge of the SE or SVT rad against this and add it up for me? I have no idea what the SVT rad is like since it is a Cougar I'm putting my 3L into.

Thanks!

Massiv.

P.S. It was Demon's post that I got the rad PN from, so does that stand as the D-SVT endorsement??
