    ali a/c coils

    im curious if anyone has cut the ali loops off of a a/c coil that was ali tubes instead of copper and what they got for it at the yard? sheet or extrusion? so i know it its worth the time to take out the ali tubes or just cut the ends off opinions? tried to look up vids on youtube but no ones of ali coils just copper=(.

    Alum A/C rads are such a buzz kill.....

    Cut off the steel and be done with it. The cut offs would be sheet aluminum and sell the rest as a clean alum rad.
