Nope.  The Ron Davis radiator is full of unknown crap, so I replaced it with a Chinese clone.  A new Ron Davis downflow radiator is $1200 with a ten week lead time, so Chinese it is.  Every tube is full of this crap.

>>> Bought an aluminum radiator from EBay for the Bugeye.  It's very well made with beautiful welding everywhere.  The problem is, it comes with it's own radiator cap rated at 15 pounds.  As you guys well know the Bugeye system is a 7 pound system.  Will this cause a problem somewhere else in the system because of the high pressure?  Geesh, this radiator even comes with a hex plug in the temp probe bung!  My probe is in the head of my 1275.  How convenGeese,
