Radiators

Hello Cottontop,

I thought about this the other day then had computer problems so only just able to get back.

I haven't looked at the websites you gave us yet but have copied them for future perusal, thank you.

Are you sure there is nothing wrong with the radiator you have in there now?

When was the last time it was properly cleaned out or re-cored (even with an "original" type core).

That Yamaha radiator may be blocking some of the airflow to the Healey one.

High flow/volume pumps are usually used on high performance engines where they are generating a lot more heat. Either that or the original pump wasn't any good to start with.

What is the water capacity of the car the V8 came out of compared to what the Healey was, is there much difference?

Best regards,

bundyrum.
