My 6' 4 Sons hate my X's
I am thinking about replacing the radiators in both my 79 (with AC) and my 86 X1/9's. Both are running good now, only get a little warm at 75 mph on long runs, otherwise they hold at 190 and fan comes on over that.
I have the 86 heading to paint, so thought I might as well do it before I put all the front trim back on. The 79 I drive most nice days and now it is due to be flushed and cleaned, I believe both have the original radiators in them. Thinking of just replacing both vs. taking old out to flush as that may cause more issues with their age.
I have looked at the ones from both Midwest and Vics, I don't need the performance one for daily drivers. What are thoughts on them for the money? Should I also just add new cooling fans to the kits, I would guess the new fans draw alot less power and are quieter then the originals. Hoping I can work a deal on set of two.
Thanks,
PW
