What does an $1800 radiator do for you besides cooling?

Well, for $1800.00 the unit should look like an artist constructed it, and you would be proud to show it to your friends. It should be well built.
For this reason, I stopped buying C&R. Their quality several years ago went away, and they started using oil coolers from another supplier (other than Delphi). Their top management split up, and started another company (Saldana), which produced a great, high quality product for our race cars. I've been told the quality came back eventually.
Bottom line is this: there are too many choices today for the enthusiast, or racer, to have to put up with a poorly built coiling unit.
...take your wife out for dinner...good one!
