I am fed up with the fan shroud and lack of any space and near impossible to install... .......

 

not to mention the factory copper / brass rad got a little banged up while remving the shroud a few months back.

 

Even though I had the local rad shop check it and they say its fine, i just dont trust it and since its cooling a big block, I just dont want to take a chance being 100 miles away and one of those bent tubes breaks and a overheat happens....

 

so... I was looking at the dewitts rad / fan combos...

 

Who has them, what temp change if any was noticed and is it worth the price?

 

 

 

 

 

Bummed recently while in traffic down here and weather was only 73 degrees with high humidity though, yet mechanical thermostat I installed showed 200 degrees.  I did install a fail safe 195 degree thermostat and programmed the fan settings where Spal said to, so I am not convinced the thermostat is right, but will know more later this summer.

 

Last weekend, I drained the radiator, added Water Wetter and filled back with plain water and temp dropped about 10 degrees, left about a 10-20% antifreeze mix, so we will see.

 

However, to answer the other question, Dewitt and Spal are first class folks.  You should be fine in PA though.  LA is hotter than a *&^%%$#@!@~! with the humidity.

So far, great service!

 

I am hoping with the Stewart Stage 1 Pump, Robertshaw Hi-flo 180 deg t-stat and this rad / fan setup  with a coolant additive.....

 

I should not have to worry again about overheating!
