You could have the rad rodded. It is very labour intensive. By the time you have it done, it may be just as cheap as having it recored. I had an excellent looking rad that was sent out to be flushed last year ( mice) I installed this rad on an untested engine only find that I buggered up a good used engine by overheating it, the the mice had done more damage and plugged up more then the rad shop knew initially. I had to have it reflushed by their most experienced guy. The rad is better, but I think I'll go new next time. Good luck. Jeff
