Hey Les - don't get too technical on me

40 rows and not sure on thickness (50mm I think).

David,

Using my Civil Enginnering brain 1 litre of water weighs 1 Kg.

Based upon a 10% increase in water capacity of my EFI Windsor (15L capacity) using an aluminium radiator the increase would be 1.5 Kg.

Guessing that an aluminium radiator would be approx 50% the weight of a cast one therefore reduced weight of an aluminium radiator far outways (no pun intended) any increase in water capacity.

Plenty of assumptions above, but I think I am on the right track
