A guy could ramble on and on and on about the topic, but for anyone to say or think that the metric system is inferior to the British system of measurement is totally incorrect. Actually, I don't think anyone here today has said that but it has often been mentioned. It's just that it is unfamiliar and seems difficult to use. But when you think of it, our basic number system is metric (although it might not be called that). The whole 'number system' is based on tens, hundreds, and thousands in much the same way that metric measurement is.

Whether we will ever completely shed the British system up here is doubtful in my opinion.

Radiator cores clog up with rust, lime or other mineral deposits and the fins clog up with weed seeds and debris. The metal headers slowly corrode away from years of use and
