I was interested to note the recommendation for a magnesium anode – I have zinc anodes in several of my cars that have aluminum heads or radiators. So, I looked it up on line: Magnesium has a low current capacity. Like a bowl of nuts, it’s quickly eaten. Zinc and aluminum are akin to a plate piled high with home cooking. The meal lasts longer. So, though magnesium offers more protective electrons faster, it protects for only about one-third the time of zinc, and just one-fifth the time of aluminum. http://www.boatingmag.com/how-to/choosing-right-sacrificial-anode Stephen Nelson -----Original Message----- From: DeTomaso [mailto:detomaso-bounces@server.detomasolist.com] On Behalf Of Roland Sent: Wednesday, August 10, 2016 1:03 AM To: thomas <thomas@hax.se> Cc: detomaso@server.detomasolist.com Subject: Re: [DeTomaso] Radiator Dilemma I was asking, because i know from my boating hobby, that an anode, that is not eaten up, doesn't do anything in the system.

It looks like this: <http://www.boatzincs.com/engine-sizes.html> http://www.boatzincs.com/engine-sizes.html
And it is probably zinc, not magnesium. Was probably confusing it with the anode in some water boilers.

I installed a magnesium anode instead of the drain cock in my Fluidyne radiator a few years back. I've had this radiator for well over ten years without issues.
I use propylene antifreeze and soft water.

The Pantera Parts Connection Fluidyne system with shroud and fans
runs
$1250.00 complete. We have never had one fail since running the
No-rossion water treatment additive to insure the Lucas electrical
back-feed doesn¹t turn the Aluminum radiator into an anode, which
is the main reason for aluminum radiators to fail. BTW Soft water
works best for filling your system against electrolysis. Larry

Jack,
I received lots of good feedback on radiators recently as you may
have seen. I have an older Hall Brass radiator that was in good
shape overall in our car which I decided to repair for a couple
hundred bucks and add their Mariah fans since mine were stock.
Many people like the Hall one. Many liked aluminum, especially
the Ron Davis sold by Pantera Performance.
Dennis Quella @ [1] <http://panteraperformance.com/> http://panteraperformance.com/ was
recommended for a high quality, all tig welded aluminum setup
from Ron Davis racing. I was told they do not stock them and they
special order them as needed, takes about 3 weeks to a month. I
believe his radiator and fans package are around $1600.
Doing some research, I came across Brassworks, haven't heard of
anyone but they do reference a Pantera owner on their site. They
are kind of expensive, around $1300. There may be other
Brass/copper radiators done by others, but I haven't seen any.
Sooo, timing and money were one factor for us, plus our radiator
is repairable and works well, will work even better once the fans
and correct relays are in. The Hall radiator is around $600 brand new.
Hope this helps some, good luck.

Subject: [DeTomaso] Radiator Dilemma Hey all - I need some good
advice on radiators. I currently have a Fluidyne performance unit
without a shroud. I've been told that a shroud is a necessity,
which I understand. I've had it for about 12 years now - no
leaks. The rumblings on The List lean towards a unit by Dennis
Quella(?) - don't know the correct spelling or the company, but
the last I had read from someone was just to get his radiator and
"be done with it". I think it was a double-pass (I guess that's
good) - and I assume it's shrouded. Another side of me asks -
which is better - copper or aluminum? And Why? I know the copper
units are heavier, but I am not concerned about extra weight. I
am familiar with the company - Brassworks - they have been at it
since the early 1900's. Ken and Lela MacArthur had mentioned
Brassworks in July. So - here we go - I know the discussion will
generate a fair amount of opinions - which I always welcome,
since it will generate more questions too. Looking forward to hearing from all the experts - i know you are out there.
