It's a PTC and the new one will be a PTC.

what radiator do you have and do you have any problems running on the street as im in need for a smaller one.
It's an AFCO. I don't know the size off the top of my head. I can get measurements for ya. I do know it's a double pass.

I havent driven it for extended periods so I can't answer that, but I made 6 passes over about 3 hrs and it never got above 175. I started the first pass at 150 and finished the day at 175. It doesn't get hot.

thats cool man i was mainly worried about going aftermarket looking for brand preference. and being smaller if there was a heat issure i would have to worry about more than size itself.

Less drag from dropping the mirrors and a slight gain in MPH.

I figured loosing the mirrors was worth at least 10-15 mph. Combine that with Madman's sticker on the back.......I might be able to just take the blower off.

I will say this.....it does have a bad *** pump and fan on it. Fan is on the same switch as the pump so it runs all the time.
