4Cyl CJ-8 radiator help

thank you for all of your help to this point. I recently bought my scrambler, it had been sitting for a year or so so I am going through it and refreshing items. It is a 4CYL and I will eventually swap a 304 in it when time permits…in the meantime, my radiator was leaking at the seams, so I removed it and took it to a radiator shop, they said it was trash. they might be able to recore it, but it’s too much, any ideas on where I can get a new one? Rock auto, no go, standard parts places, no go….the radiator shop didn’t even have one…..thanks for any advice.

maybe it’s time for the 304 swap…….I don’t have a motor, so that is next on my list

located in Atlanta
 
Would recommend getting a radiator for the 304 future build. So it is in already. Not sure hose line up..assume it may be the same.
 
I did. Summit racing had one. I was lucky!! Now I need to make sure the water pump is working and get the dang temp guage to move and work. It wants to stay by the C, the guage moves, but can’t get it in the middle…..I need to also check my grounds and alternator…I think I have a few electrical gremlins…..once those two are done she will be ready to rock
 
You can test the gauge by hooking up a sending unit in water that is 200 degrees in a pan. Gauge should move to the middle and more towards H at that temp.
