New in 2014 PST Now Carries Northern High Performance Radiators

[commando1]

Im curious to see what Stans radiator looks like out of the car so we can see a comparison of whats going on, I am all for learning. Care to help out Stan?

It looks EXACTLY like this 76 NYB 440 aftermarket radiator only it lacks the OEM mounting tabs for the shroud.

Plus the aftermarket OEM replacements have plastic tanks I believe.

Wrong Stan, its a question........the PST guy isnt answering.

Isnt this the same company that was proud of their off shore made front end parts?

I won't say anything bad about a sponsor that sponsors us.
Just my own personally philosophy that means nothing but it's what I do.
I'll quietly vote with my wallet.
Over at Moparts to which I really have no feelings for, I have ripped both RockAuto and 440 Source a new *******. The sheep over there need a rude awakening to their always drinking the Koolade.

I have now shown PST the difficulties of distributing radiators for C-bodies.
The good news is that he has responded to my concerns, anyway.
I wasn't worried about the U.S.A. thingie. The only way the final result can be 100% correct would mean that it could only be made in the U.S.A anyway. China or Mexico don't have ability.

All things being equal (or nearly) I'll support a vendor that sponsors the forum.

Hello Polara71,

I hope this answers your question and is acceptable:

I do apologize that I am not always able to answer questions right away within an hour or so. PST is not a very large company and I am Marketing/New Products Department Manager and have many responsibilities. I manage/monitor dozens of various forums that we sponsor or participate in and answer questions, not to mention our various social media outlets, the PST website, our standard magazine ads and I oversee the making of our new catalogs. So I am sorry if my response time is not sufficient. I am also proud of every part that we carry no matter where it is made as they all carry our same warranty. Many of my own antique cars run PST parts as well. Even my own mopar (72 Duster). I have noticed that you seem to not like our products but that is OK as everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

Thanks
James

As for Stan's issue. I don't believe that we will be able to provide you with a suitable direct bolt-in replacement at this time. But I am continuing to work with Northern to see if we can in the future for your year make and model.

for a vendor to even go into a forum and engage customers is ballsy.

You guys have been great THANK YOU!
FWIW, I just went with a Champion CC503. It met all the requirements but I never would have found that out if we not had this discussion at all.

Thank you....... got nothing against PST..... i go out of my way to support the country almost regardless of cost.

Being a sponsor is admirable and i thank you for that but made in The USA is first and foremost....
