Simrak Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 I had a RD on my old car. after less than one season it started leaking. So I called a few repair places and exlaine dteh problem. One of them started laughing as soon as I told him what the problem was...he said, "it must be a Ron Davis huh?" I guess they have been known to break or crack in the corners...He said they are the Yugo of radiators... Needless to say, I replaced the RD with a PWR and have had no further problems. Quote
Randog Posted January 16, 2008 Posted January 16, 2008 My Ron Davis was leaking two years ago. May have been caused by the way it was mounted. Anyways for $80.00 A1 radiator in Ontario sealed the corners and tank tested it. I changed the mounts a little and I haven't had any problems since. :praying: R- Quote

D W Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 What is your opinion on ron davis radiators or what do you prefer for ta LS 1 motor? Thanks for your help Ron Davis Radiators are CRAP. Their service after the sale is horrible. I bought one, had a problem with it, sent it back to get fixed "under warranty" and they called and said I abused my radiator and abuse isnt covered under warranty. WTF, how do you abuse a radiator. They disassembled my radiator and then wanted to charge me to put it back together and send it back...eff them. I went wit a PWR they are out of Temecula, murrietta area. They had my radiator to me in 3 days. yes that right 3 days. I paid 150 bucks less by having them do it and ship it to me than Ron Davis wanted to just fix my radiator. PWR's # 951.245.2900 Im telling ya these guys are great! Quote
HarleyR Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 C&R and Fluidyne are the two top aftermarket radiators without a doubt...no mass production and good prices custom build anything.. Quote
