Classic industries radiator finally gave out

is it only necessary with a aluminum radiator? Where does the zinc go if it gets dissolved?


With aluminum heads and intakes too. The zinc dissolves into the coolant and doesn’t hurt anything.

You can get zinc anodes for 20 bucks or less if you look. Don’t forget your timing cover is aluminum too. I seen many of them ate up and it gets blamed on cavitation but it’s really electrolysis.
