Cost of a radiator and blankets on exhaust

[timvasqz]

Blankets keep heat in the exhaust system so it does not disapate
into the engine compartment and heat the electronics and hoses. heat
goes out the pipe with the air. Radiators cost is dependant on the
market cost of materials. I would think it to be about $2,500 for a
core, was $3800 in the summer. the top tank and bottom tank are
bolted on to be reused with a new core. there are many threads in
the forum search about radiators costs and opinions.
