Details

These 1917-1923 T-Bucket radiators are built to work without a grille shell and look good doing it! Speedway T-bucket radiators do not use a conventional "pressure" radiator cap, rather they use the decorative "T" caps to seal the neck at the top of the radiator. A hidden pop-off valve (910-15805 sold separately) is used for pressure control. Gasket # 911-12222 is very helpful for sealing the decorative "T" caps.

Features Chevy position outlets, auto transmission cooler. These accept "T" radiator caps and accessories, but are not included.

  1. The upper neck is left of center about 6".
  2. 4" upper tank thickness, 3" strap thicknes that encases the core, 2.25" core
  3. Uses 2 each 1" wide core tube
  4. Choose from buffed or polished

Poorly engineered.

Unfortunately the radiator cap leaks. I tried using the Speedway O rings (attempted using 1 then 2 then 3) but rad fluid squirts up through the cap threading. Found several others online who have had the same issue with this product. Even with gasket maker and an O ring rad fluid seeps out. For the price and cost of delivery I expected a better product.

But I am not so sure on the radiator relief valve , it seems the radiators top tank keeps blowing off coolant leaving the top tank empty. Don't know what the problem is or the design but I am have a issue. I am going to add a radiator filler neck and cap and close off the relief valve with a recovery tank.

Looks good and fits in the fiberglass shell nicely. The biggest problem I didn't see at first was the mounting tabs are not the same on each side. One was wider than the other. I don't believe it is for a reason but be aware when centering it up on a project.

Only for a hotrod

You have to buy original radiator cap which depending on which one you want there is a shortage, the overflow tube is the other problem. If they had a newer radiator cap with a overflow tube and that would be better.

I would buy this again looks great
