Ed and Brendan -

You guys keep it up, and I'll look for George Foreman and Jim Lampley interviewing you on HBO Boxing! I can hear Michael Buffer now: "LLLLLets Get ready to RUUUMMMBBBLLLEEEEE/BWAAAAAHHHH!"

Normy,

You maybe should have spent more than 1.37 seconds thinking about a stop leak. Things have come a long way. Check out this:

<a href="http://www.crracing.com./estore/partdesc.cfm?category=stopleak" target="_blank">http://www.crracing.com./estore/partdesc.cfm?category=stopleak</a>

The stop leak has been demonized over the years because of this ceramic junk they talk about. I guess they must be using paprika now.

I'm willing to bet there are a lot of high dollar race teams running this stuff in their $100,000 engines that need much more cooling efficiency than a 928.

Dan, me thinks that was way hilarious - I'm still chuckling.

You gentlemen, take it outside please - no dueling pistols allowed in the house.

I'm still wondering why everyone is expecting a racing radiator to last longer than a couple years.

Folks:
I didn't start this exchange, and I've decided there's nothing to be gained by continuing. YMMV.

Ive used the stock radiator on the Holbert WR setting 928 race car with no issues, and my old part euro 5 liter race car for over 80 events. However, the black race car (79 928) was over heating during its initial shake down, and a devek radiator solved this. I think the devek radiator buys a little safety margin, and seems to be very well built. I just dont have one on the race car as the stock one has perfomed well up to 110 degree race days!!

I have an OEM radiator for sale. Purchased new 2 years ago. Only in vehicle for a few thousand miles. Made by Behr. Has oil cooler.
Small dent along bottom rail, nothing that affects reliability.
$500 plus shipping.

Many other parts from an 80 EuroS, 5 Speed for sale.
