So I decided to replace the water pump and thermostat while I was screwing around with the fan since it was so close by. I could tell from the discoloration/corrosion of the pump housing that it had... seen some things even though the impeller looked ok. I was also incorrect about the t-stat...

I'll pick one up ASAP. Thanks! And still cheaper than a radiator.

Thanks Gerald, I've also been told by numerous shroud dealers that it's impossible to match up a shroud with a specific OEM model number. SO, with everyone's good advice on here I'm just going to start with a larger, 6-blade fixed to replace the 4 blade and a bottle of water wetter. That's...

You're correct, I haven't verified anything unfortunately. I think the problem is that I admittedly know diddly-squat about these details of older vehicles and of course Google doesn't have much info either. It feels like I'm teaching myself rocket science on an actual rocket with a braille...

Do you happen to have a part number for that by chance?

So it appears that I somehow have a B-body rad (2898038) which adds to the Google-confusion for me. Am I reading this correctly from the service manual that automatic 318's without a/c did not come with shrouds? It's definitely no taxi.

Perfect, I'll go with that and take it over to Lansing Radiator in a few weeks when I get her out of storage to see what they can do. I'll keep the t-stat option in mind as even I can replace that easy enough if need be. Thanks everyone!

Would having it worked over by a radiator shop provide a noticeable increase in cooling over a new aluminum one? There's nothing wrong with the stock one per se, just looking for the biggest (and easiest) improvement without a fan shroud. And to answer an earlier question, I'm guessing it...

Oh no worries. That's a huge relief, I've read the posts about sheet metal or limb loss with those too.

Thanks guys, I didn't even know that fan spacers are a thing. I'll check that out. I'm sure having it recored, etc. is probably the best way to go but that type of thing and/or swapping in a clutch fan is beyond me. I could've sworn the existing fan is a fixed blade and not a flex, is there...

Hey All, Looking to replace my radiator asap this spring and since I've never done one before I thought I'd ask in the hopes that someone may have a similar setup. I currently have a Chrysler 2898 038 18398 (18x22, no a/c) which appears functionally identical to the Cold Case MOP751A. In...
