Radiator Suggestions,

[James Devereux]

I want to replace my old radiator and pipework for something that fits a bit better.

Does anyone have pics of theirs and suggestions on new radiators that fit nicely as well as do a good job.

Sorry no pics, but Ive just installed a new Kitspares rad. in my 2B which has a sliding pillar chassis (ie a big X in front of the rad.) and it fits very neatly with my VX redtop engine.
Maybe post some pics of yours showing what you dont like about the fit?

I'm looking to replace my rad as well on my S3a. I want to move it forward, if I can 8nto the nose cone to add more liquid into the system and add a header tank... has anyone else done this?

I did this in an Exmo but in order to get it into the nosecone it had to be angled/tilted back and this affects airflow through it; I'm not saying it doesn't work, but just try and keep it to a minimum (the angle I mean). I used a 90's VW Polo diesel radiator from memory - they are quite compact. My memory is hazey but it might have also been fitted to some other models like a Seat Cordoba or somesuch....!
