FRPP fox radiator
Ordering a FRPP aluminum rad for my 90 after tiring myself trying to get a cheap used 3 core brass/copper to work. A cheap used radiator sounded like the answer to my summer day traffic overheating problem....
In reality, I am convinced all used radiators leak. At least that is my crappy experience.....
...ANYHOW, I was hoping some of you chaps may be able to fill me in on some questions considering FRPP's tech line seems to be non-existent.
Exactly what must be modified in order for this thing to work? I have an electric fan setup that does not interfere with my H20 pump even with a 3 core.... so I doubt I will have a clearance issue...
Also, my upper and lower hose locations appear to remain the same....... the FRPP rad comes with a tank for power steering or trans (which I will not utilize due to 5 speed although a p/s cooler sounds like a good idea if I ever decide to road course). The picture shows all the little "tabs" on the top and bottom in the same spot.... so mounting of my rather shoddy Taurus electric fan appears to be unchanged.......
SO WHAT IN THE HELL NEEDS TO BE MODIFIED? Will the upper mount arms fit? Will the lower portion fit into the little rubber "grabbers" on the lower mount?
I didn't have to modify the leaking 3 core I just installed so why the hell would I have to modify this FRPP one?
Any input on the required modifications of this supposedly "modification required" rad will help me out greatly.
Also, if anyone wants to come mop all the sticky, dried coolant off my garage floor every night this week - that would great too 'mkay
