    I put a Mitchell overdrive in my 29 Tudor. I had the option of 20% or 30% and chose 30%. If I had it to do over, I would go with the 20%.

    love my new radiator

    since replacing the radiator on my 29 tudor, I have driving the car daily and dont woprry much about where I am going. with the 30% Mitchell overdrive I can cruise comfortably between 50-60. wish I'd coughed up the $600.00 for the new radiator 15 years ago. ;)
