Clemente, what are the benefits of an aluminum radiator? I've been meaning to ask you that.

Better cooling properties and holds more coolant , My oem was leaking badly so this seem like a good upgrade

It's a larger capacity over stock?  Do you know how much larger?

I spent the day tearing the interior out and removing a bunch of old wiring that I will no longer be needing.  I redid the wiring for the security system, but I'm not happy with the results.  I may just completely replace my security system with something new instead.  That way I'm starting with fresh wiring harnesses and can extend the wires as long as I want to get better placement of the components.

I once had a dodge neon in which I cracked the radiator. It got replaced with an aluminum one and the problem I had is that during the winter, it would cool the engine so much that the temperature needle would stay on cold and the heater wouldn't work.

This aluminum weights 14 pounds over stock when fill with coolant which is 11 pounds on oem for the v6 and the 4cly oem is 10 compare to the aluminum is 12 pounds not sure how to math it out to see how much extra capacity it holds according to there site . This will come in handy for my long road trips in summer traffic
