I just took my radiator in to "Perfomance Radiator" to have it re-cored.
05 Eagle 8V71..10 speed The tanks are in good condition....( $1,100 Estimate )
I would like to know the DISTILLED water gallons and the Detroit antifreeze gallons that I will need. Thanks......Ken |

Power Cool 3000 aditive., will replace some of the exhausted chemicals ., extending operating protection for a while.
But its NO substitite for regular coolant service.
One of the hassles of SCA is it leaves a film on all engine parts.
Great when the cylinders ring and the SCA absorbes the cavitation rather than your $$$ cylinders disolving.
BUT the slyme is through out the entire cooling system in places where it is not being eaten by cavitation.
Like the radiator and cylinder heads ,
so the need to perodically remove the old gunk with an agressive 2 part cleaner and flush, flush flush.
I have always thought many of the engines lost to overheating would still be in service , if the cooling system had not been ignored, almost forever.
