Possible all Aluminum Radiator group buy

from Adam Harrington on FaceBook


"****GROUP BUY****
To all:
I have talked with AMR and they are willing to put together a group buy for an aluminum radiator for us at $325 shipped!!! They will need 20 people to go into this with 50% down payment.

Andy from AMR also had this to say:
If you can get a group buy going, have them pay 50 percent down, and allow us 8 weeks to produce them then we can do it.

It will take us about 3-4 weeks to prepare the jig, and do some testing, then 4 weeks to produce.

This would be a stock copy, meaning it will have all the mounts, and etc to use your factory hardware.

Let me know who all is interested and hopefully we can get the 20 people needed to make this happen!"

additionally he went on to say

"I just spoke with Andy from AMR about the concerns of it performing better then stock and he said: Ofcourse it will flow better than stock, it will utilize a better core, and thicker core. It will be tons better than the oem tank for sure."

YMMV not my info just passing it on to non FB SVXers. Currently ONLY 5 of us have signed up!

Re: Possible all Aluminum Radiator GROUP BUY LIST

Lets start the group buy list by adding the name of the five members who have already committed their payment. May serve as an incentive.

Who is handling the group buy on thr network and collecting the upfront $162.50 deposits? What forms of payments accepted (Paypal?) Have they ever made radiators before?

I forwarded the questions to Adam Harrington on Face Book as he is the instigator of this and I do not know if he comes here often.

Re: Possible all Aluminum Radiator group buy

Yes, they have made radiators:

https://amrengineering.com/gallery/n...minum-radiator

"The stock S-series radiator is prone to cracking. Many many Saturn owners have replaced their radiators more than once due to this problem. We solved this problem by making a full aluminum radiator for their chassis. This particular model uses a 1.5" core, and is tig welded, and then pressure tested once completed. The unit includes all OEM provisions, and can use all stock hardware such as the factory ac, and radiator fans. This is a product with limited availability. Contact us today to check on to see if we have one available!"

Re: Possible all Aluminum Radiator group buy

From Adam
"The deposits won't be collected until 20 people are in the group buy. Also payment will be on the AMR website once I notify him of 20 people in the group buy he will set up a payment option just for us. Yes they have made radiators before and you can see them on their website as well."

Re: Possible all Aluminum Radiator group buy

I just signed up on their website (don't have FB). I've wanted a PWR radiator for quite some time but they are very expensive. This seems like a great compromise.

Ordered mine on the 7th. Hopefully the fan shroud adjustments are taken care of in the production run. Can't wait to get the radiator installed!

Re: Possible all Aluminum Radiator group buy

I ordered one as well, it was a little painful to part with the money considering my Silla is in fine shape. Just seemed like too good of a deal to pass up.
