These radiators seem to have identical inlets and outlets yet is the model B radiator different capacity/ greater heat exchange than a model A radiator?

Claude since it’s an A related question i moved it here for you. I’m sure someone will know -
Not sure, but I used a B radiator to help cool the 55 Olds engine in my 32 back in 62. Due to clearance issues had to "make" a fan. The B radiator also cooled the Pontiac Tempest 4-cyl I ran for a while in the 32. FWIW
You're probably going to have issues with shell attachment and rad cap issues??

Maybe a little better. The Model B still used the 4 cylinder engine so additional cooling would not have been an issue.
the B radiator had 8 fins per inch as the Model A had 6.Comment

Fwiw
I believe Claude’s car has the V-8Comment

If it's a V8, it's not a B....................B designated 4 cyl.

I figured that there was something wrong with the radiator installation that prevented the hood from aligning correctly.
Well, I backed my A out into the sunlight and wow, my radiator is catiumbus.
So, how do I straighten the radiator?

I need to get a new radiator for my late 28 roadster. The good news is that there are options. The challenge is that there may be more than one good option. Here is what I have narrowed it down to:
1. New Berg's radiator
2. New Brassworks round tube radiator
3. Have Bert's recore my old radiator
Many people love Berg's radiators. They don't recore anymore,...12-02-2018, 08:11 PM -
There is a radiator manufacturer near me that advertises all types of radiator cores. While I don't need one now I thought I might take an A core down to them and see what they can offer the hobby. I don't think any of the "Model A" radiator guys sell just cores anymore and was wondering if there would be a market for just cores that you would use your tanks....09-26-2017, 01:27 AM -
Does anybody know where I can get the Ford drawings/blueprints for the '29 radiator? I am interested in the specification of the radiator frame dimensions, core placement, etc.
Thanks.

Got my 1933 v8 engine running, running great motor sound like a new engine. Experiencing several tiny radiator leaks high up on the radiator. Any ideas how to locate the actual hole? Should I try "stop leak"...05-29-2019, 06:52 AM -
