Dave Wilson Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 I've damaged the large ally racing radiator in my 2.0 XE engined car, would it be ok to replace with a "standard" one and any idea of how much these are, I can't seem to find an up to date parts list on line.

simon redshaw Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Dave, i asked the same question, but it is not worth it and best to ask if anyone has a large radiator (aluminium) for sale on Blat or tpiston-heads etc. Not enough cooling capability in a small rad. New one is upto £350.00, but a small radiator is £200+. Rgds simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxy Smith Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Was looking for a Vx standard rad last year with zero success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F355GTS Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 I run a std Rad, I was fedup with the triple pass one splitting al lthe time, spoke to Simon Lambert at the time and he confirmed the triple pass was only introduced for the racers due to airflow issues when they were following closely Had no issues with it Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dickie Normuss Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Simon I use the standard rad in my XE without any probs VX HPC - Loud and proud here Seek forgiveness, not permission.

Gambo Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I was about to post, when all these new smile's appeared 😔 😶🌫️ 🥰 🙅🏻♂️ . He He. Was going to say. I might have a triple for sale. I've had issue with the car running cool, and fluktuating temp. So I may go back to a standard one. If I don't my standard one will be up for sale RED 2.0 HPC 230BHP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveK Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Dave I ran the std k series rad as it was listed at the time, this was fine even dual driving on the hills. It warmed up quicker as well. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rj Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I think I've still got an old heavy one on the shelf. It's yours for the postage cost to NTL. Bear in mind that I'm in Denmark, so it will probably be ITRO £25. /r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
