After taking out the engine and painting the chassis rails etc, i have noticed a small damp patch on the radiator.

Are these a TVR only item or were the robbed from a parts bin?
If so what is it off?

It's essentially a Leyland Daf Sherpa van rad, but with extra cores - ie non-standard.

If it is leaking, then a radiator specialist should be able to recore it in a day ot two - mine was about £130, I think Pies and a few others paid about the same.

Same thing happened on mine last week. I had it recored at a local specialist... cost me £140 but took all day to do. Apparently the hardest part is actually getting the thing out!

S'awright - I forgot the "upside down" bit (ie what used to be a drain valve is now a handy bleed valve!)
