Title: Radiator
Post by Jonnycab on Jan 4^th, 2010, 9:50am

Just a quickie ;).....Does anyone know if the 2.9 12v auto rad is the same as the 2.3 16v auto rad ? :)

The general layout appears identical,ie top hose bottom hose and cooler stubs,the 12v has a fan temp switch in the offside but that could be left in or blanked off,the fans are different and have different plugs and shroud,but I would think yours would go on en masse,as the fixings appear the same,ie slot in at base and two screws at the top.

Thanks for that Gozz ;)......so apart from the fan switch, it all looks the same.

I'm also wondering about the core size......Would it be the same core throughout the range, I wonder ? :-/

Yes the cores are 4cm deep,if you buy a pattern part it is usually thinner,having one row less water tubes even though the end tanks are the same size.
