1200 Cross flow radiator conversion

Post by Adam Herbert »

Hey guys, my stock, 2 core radiator is absolutely pukaru leaking all over the show and I'm constantly having to top it up (about once every two trips, very annoying). And with my supercharged engine progressing Im looking at chucking in a good aluminium 3 core or more radiator. Does anyone know anything suitable?
Cheers,
Adam

They can't have been can they? It looks like The port for the water pump is completely the wrong place?

its what I use on my b310 a12 sunny as you can get 2 or 3 core, then all you need to do is slightly change both hose locations and your done, and if you know someone who will tig it for you then its even easier

Have bought this 3 core one for a steal, I'd recommend for anyone looking for more cooling!
