    Judging of Dewitt's tank top radiators?

    I have a friend who is evaluating his choices for a new tank top radiator for his 1960. One of his choices is to install a new DeWitts tank top radiator. He would like to know how well they do in flight judging. Any comments out there that could help him make a decision? Thanks.

        At the 2009 Regional meet in Florida I lost 1 point for the black finish on a Dewitts radiator. Said it wasn't the correct black. Shocked the heck out of me.

        Cheers,

            Garry, My early '61 has the top tank Dewitt radiator and has not lost any points in flight judging. The side brackets are not exact and I cleaned and re-used my originals. This radiator should have NO paint on it as it needs to be raw aluminum, so I don't know what this has to do with the top tank unit. Mike
