Default Bar and Plate Radiator???

I know the regular style of radiator is working good for alot of people. But i was thinking of would a bar and plate style radiator be worth it? since bar and plate seems to rule the intercooler market i was wondering if it would have the same effects for cooling the engine.

If anyone knows where you can buy one post a link or share your thoughts on the subject thanks

Spearco used to offer them. I am not seeing them on the site anymore though.

Many race guys use precision bar/plates, and many people also use garrett bar/plate cores. Both use very dense fins, which will give you the best cooling. They usually rate them too by HP, which isn't far off since the fins are so dense.

what do you mean by dense?

also, google bar and plate radiators under advanced search with the site http://www.eng-tips.com as your search site, youll find a few good threads talking about them and how they may not be as effective, or the same as tube/fin style.
