We have spent twenty years making our Ford Model A Radiators the most authentic looking and best cooling on the market.  They are made in the USA with copper fins, brass tanks, galvanized steel sidewalls, internal baffles to prevent overflow and steel shell mounting brackets. Each radiator is painted flat black just like the original and every radiator is pressure tested.

6 or 10 fins per inch?
Henry Ford used 6 fins per inch in his radiator core.  If your going to show your car you'll likely opt for 6 fins per inch but if you're an active driver, trade-up to 10 fins per inch and you'll enjoy 40% more surface area for cooling.  As engine compression increased and the engines began to heat up, fins were added to increase the surface area. Increasing surface area helps transfer the heat from the water to the fin and the fin to the air.  

Keep your cool under pressure
The Brassworks will pressurize your system with an optional pressure cap neck located out of site beneath the hood.  For every pound of pressure your raise the boiling point of water by 3 degrees. With our recommended 4psi cap distilled water will boiling at 224 degrees and 50/50 will boil at 235 degrees.

With a blocked off filler neck on top and an underhood pressure cap (invisible to the public) your Model A will look authentic outside and keep the engine cool inside.  It is an added sense of security whether in a slow moving parade or creeping up a long uphill grade when touring.  A great addition for cars with overhead valve conversions or higher compression heads.

We also sell flat black overflow tanks designed to blend into the engine compartment to retail any cooling system loss. As the system cools, coolant is drawn back from the recovery tank to the radiator.
