When our customer Mr. Hansen requested a dual core for his model A e.g. dimpled 6 fin per inch face with a 11 fin per inch on the engine we all said "oooooh, now there's a twist. " So it will look stock in front and maximize the cooling on the back. We named it for the Roman God, Janus, for the future of engineering design and the reflective past of historic design.
Its still a drop in replacement for the 1930-1931 Ford car or car based pick-up truck and set-up for the OE engine in its production year.
The highly elliptical tube shape provide equal volumetric throughput but increase surface area by 293% thus requiring fewer tubes and still providing greater heat exchange. Other features include a deep drawn tank with an OE stamp pattern, electric wire tabs, galvanized steel sidewalls, and riveted brackets for a longer life.
Features of the 1930 and 1931 Model A radiators include:
Made in the USA
Use of aftermarket stay rods (often in chrome or stainless) will cause your radiator to tilt forward and result in hood-to-shell separation.
We make to order. Please allow adequate time for us to build.
Build time estimates [Feb 2025]
Brass/Black Model Ts
Our longstanding foundry (supplier) closed and all production was shifted to a neighboring foundry. Apparently many of the closed foundry's workers were ineligible for rehire by the new foundry due to more aggressive immigration enforcement and the union has no employees to provide. As of 2-20-25, we should receive castings in March 2025 and can resume production then.
In the interim, we have been working with our one-off foundry to have pattern boxes made and these are trickling in in smaller batches and we will produce what we can.
Model As 5-6 weeks
Heater cores ~6 weeks
Model A and 32 Ford Street rods 6 weeks
Common street rods ~12-15 weeks
Tricky customs & complicated restorations ~16 weeks months
We appreciate your patience as we continue to recruit and train new fabricators and manage the labor shortfall our country has been experiencing.
