Maggie Heat Exchaneger replacement Price
So I punctured my HEX when trying to install a new alradco radiator.. frustrating to say the least. So I called magnuson expecting a replacement to cost no more than $300. Well turns out a replacement is $900. does this sound right? This heat exchnager is so smaller and simple could it really be that pricey?

Search the CF. I don't recall which one either but a guy put one in. It won't bolt in but its bigger and better with little modification necessary.

Or the easiest way is to use needle nose pliers and crimp the bad area and pour JB weld all around. I did that to a very expensive radiator I put a hole in. Its held for a year so far and thats with some pressure. The rad shop could only crimp the bad row.

yea i'd absolutely never do that.

I got the idea from some drifter buddies that do this all the time. The things you do to to save a $500 radiator. This has held for a year so far and not a weep (knock on wood). No change in water temps either...
Just google aluminum radiator repair and this is very common.
