He may be better off using a radiator out of the old style VW Bugs. You know like the "Herbie" style Bugs. I heard of alot of guys using them on big blocks.

I heard you dont even have to run coolant in those. THats how good of a job those cool the engines. Im going to def invest in one of those when I put my new engine in. Ive decided Im gonna go N/A because I heard those JDM mufflers add like 90hp each. So Ill get atleast 5000hp out of the engine after I put the flame decals on my car if my calculations are correct.

Maybe you should let your friend do work on your moms car in the future too. She'll thank you later when the guy doesn't recalibrate the blinker fluid or radiator or whatever it is that he wants to do.
