What is the difference between a Brassworks Model A and the cheaper ones I see in catalogues?
A. Where to begin…our dies stamp the correct direction, we use galvanized steel to prevent rust, our tanks are a heavier gauge of brass, each tube in our cores is lock seam welded in a more efficient tube design, our 28-29 inlet has the funnel neck and the 30-31 has the correct angled tube, our 28-29 tanks are three piece part and our 30-31 is deep drawn like they’re supposed to be, we have the wire harness tabs and baffles, we use the same paint that Ford did and we do not gob-on the solder to save time in production. In short, we pride ourselves on building our radiators to mimic Ford’s design and improve them where you cannot tell. It takes more time and more effort to do it properly and it costs us more to manufacture in the United States. This is reflected in the 10-20 dollar price premium over the discount radiators offered in some catalogues.
