radiators

[roger001]

I have always used a fiat X/19 radiator which with a relatively fresh core will will cope with a V6 even in hot french traffic jams.
However as it is now some ten years old and some what tired, it needs recoreing as I keep overheating in circumstance where prev it coped OK.

I have spoken to my local rad man who reckons he can fit a 3 row core in place of the original 2 row core of the Fiat, which should give greater reserve if the cooling become a bit borderline.

Well worth considering if anyone is a bit borderline or needing to recore anyway.

I was unable to cool a 24V V6 in Italian summers so when the orginal aluminium Corse I radiator started to leak (they dont like being shaken about) I had a local radaiator specialist make up a 4-core copper unit in the same size.
Cost about £190 and weights a bit more, but at least it keeps me cool now.
