Radiator replacement

[marceli]

Hello!
I need a replacement for my old radiator. Anyone knows what fits? Mounting points doesn't bother me - I'll make my own. The point is to get simular size, hot-in on the right, cold-out on the left and (!) small one to recovery.

its a sherpa rad with an extra core. you might be best with a re-core or one of the expensive alloy ones?

Core is ok, but this recovery pipe is broken. Small problem, but painfull, so baing new radiator rips my head

Mx5 rad fits a treat, done it on mine, will post a picture in a few minutes

I did hear about the mx5 rad and bought an alloy one not fitted it yet ( still working on the back end) does it cool ok? It's a lot thinner!

Interesting pic David. Did you adapt the air box yourself? If so where did you get the parts?

OK, radiator fixed. Specialized company took 50PLN (~ Ł10). 2h later radiator was repaired, installed and filled

Thanks all for help.
