For concours' restos we need a couple of original SwX Harrison radiators. Theses are 3 core and came on many 455 and 350 skylarks cars during the 70 and 71 model years. The paasenger side tank will be bigger than the left. On the passenger side end of the tank the name Harrison will be present. Also on the back of the passenger side tank the letter S w X will appear in raised letters near where the trans cooler lines attach. The S and the W will be embossed on the ridges an the w will be in between in a valley.
Flynbuick Jim,is that radiator the one with the mouth going straight up[the filler hole]? If that is the one ,I think I have it.I will look tomorrow.BrunoD.
Bruno Yes the corner iof thr radiatoe turns at a 90 degree angle and the mouth is almost level with the ground. I really appreciate it and will take it. I do not care about the condition of the core. If you have another for sale I will buy it too.
Jim I have a radiator out of a 70 gs455 but I do not see the harrison or SW you refer to it maybe a replacement. but here it is. Also I will be picking up a 70 4dr soon to part out.
Phil it kind of looks correct but the spout overflow tube angle looks off . It is hard to see the tag and numbers from that angle. Look at these pics from Ken Lisk which are grouped to see the tag etc. Many thanks for an assist. http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?t=55761&page=1&highlight=sw
Jim, the radiator I have will not work for what you need. However I will take a good look at the 70 4dr soon to see if it still has the original one in it. :TU:
