will an alloy radiator of the same size/dimensions as a normal radiator cool better because of the alloy? and how much of an improvement over standard radiators?
i'm running a standard ke35 radiator on my n/a 16v 4age and it keeps it really cool on the open road. only time its got quite hot was on my way to wellington the other day, but it was a really hot day and I was giving it a bit of sh*t...other than that the standard radiator is fine for a n/a 4age.
just curious as to wether upgrading to an alloy radiator of the same specs as the ke35 one would be suitable for a 4agte...

perfect fit? did you have to change much to get it to bolt up? i would of thought they would have been wider as the ke3# dont have a large front opening,
cheers for help

Well it wasn't exactly perfect in that it wouldn't bolt straight in. Made up some little angled brackets for each side and it would happily sit in the hole with the bottom tank just hanging under the little angled bits. Been a while since I looked at it, but you'll see where I mean if you try to fit a 20V radiator in there

Is that custom made or from something factory?
