Aluminum radiator thoughts

[Highbanked Hauler]

 In looking at aluminum radiators there seems to be 2 different sizes of tubes.  You have 2-3-4 core with 3/8 tubes and 2 core with 2 rows of 1 in. tubes.  I'd think the 1 in.  2 row would take more air through it.

The rad in the link below is a good quality unit. A 2 core with 1in tubes is very efficient. Take a look at the E-bay link and note that some rads that advertise dual 1in tubes don't actually have that feature.

try to mount it so it is isolated from the body , all new cars do this as alum will not stand much flexing before it cracks . Welded rads are better than epoxied for the same reason

   SO something like a  piece of rubber between the body and the radiator where it is bolted ?
