Chels- Just bought one and am in the middle of installing it. It was well packaged and the only complaint I have is that the finish painting could have been better. There are many spots that aren't covered well. The plug is a bit cheezy (which CCOT told me prior to) and the drain extention on my OEM doesn't fit in their hole. For the price, I'll deal with it. I'll be sure to let you know how it turns out.

I have been using the CCOT radiator in my 76 FJ40 with V-8 for over 2 years and i am very happy with it, used the factory shroud with a little mod, and in traffic on a hot day just gets around 180 to 190 and in winter it hardly gets warm ive been thinking about putting some thing to block air flow but dont like the idea, its been great so far, no complaints!!
 
Finished the CCOT rad install and it fits perfectly. The drain plug is a plastic POS and the original isn't the same threads. I'd recommend pulling the plastic plug once you get it and find a more suitable plug prior to install. Seems to run cool and was a snap to install. Paint coverage was very poor. The tanks were fine but the fins need paint.

Chels, did you order this??

how was the duty, shipping etc to BC?

I'm in Toronto, and as of this a.m. need a rad for my '71 40. don't want to end up paying 2X, 3X for shipping to cda.

I ended up picking up a used one and having it rebuilt, ended up costing me 100 bucks... Duty and shipping were the main reasons I decided against the CCOT.
