=0A=0A=09I have a little experience with aluminum radiators as I sold th=
em for=0A10 years. They are susceptible to electrolysis if you don=E2=80=
=99t keep a=0Awatch on the coolant voltage. Yes it will show some small=
 voltage but=0Aif too high a hole will occur in the tubes. Google electr=
olysis in=0Aauto radiators and you=E2=80=99ll find some detailed informa=
tion. May not be=0Aas much an issue in race cars as our hobby cars but w=
orth the=0Aeducation. Also a common aluminum radiator repair is the use=
 of an=0Aepoxy. Works well if the aluminum is clean. =0A=0A=09JVV
