A WT radiator will fit in a coily - but you will need to fix your fan shroud on with cable ties as the holes are in a slightly different position. The drain tap is also in a slightly different position so you need to cut the shroud around this also. I know the mounting rails are different also but I can't remember if new holes are required. I have a WT radiator in one of my coilies.

Don't forget to disconnect that before going into deep puddles.. The water pushed the blades against the radiator and damages all the fins and sometimes blades snap off ....

Wire it up to a really flippin' annoying, mega-loud piezo buzzer in the cab that screams at you when it's manually switched off. pompoms

If I had a thermo off switch (or a thermo full stop) I'd also have a coolant temperature alarm, which is something I'd have on most 4wds anyway.

Yeah i got one when i did the 1.6 conversion, from memory on one side a lip need to be cut from the shroud then one side will bolt up and i used zipties on the other side to get it back on the road however the zipties are still there 5 months later :lol:

No, the shroud is absolutely necessary for correct cooling. The fan and radiator can't work without it.

Ok,Thanks again,i'll find a way to get it mounted,perhaps the earlier shrouds will fit and clear the Coily fan.
