Can anyone help me out with a suggestion for an alternative radiator for my L series coupe. I'm trying to get something off the shelf. Has anyone had any experiences they
would like to share? cheers Bruce

I put a 27 inch wide three core Oldsmobile radiator in my first sedan from an early 70s Cutlass. I drilled two holes to put the rubber lower mounts into and put a piece of sheet metal
over the top to hold it in place. That was on the turboed A12 and I could never get the temp guage to get up to the cold mark without a thermostat in the motor. I lived in Florida one very hot summer and it still never ran up to the cold mark. I do not use thermostats unless I have to to make the heater work. A cold engine runs much better than a hot engine.

For an L-series it's tough to beat the old reliable aluminum VW Rabbit/Scirroco radiator? It's also considerably lighter than a Datsun brass radiator. They can also be bought new for
around $80-110. Can anyone help me out with a suggestion for an alternative radiator for my L series coupe. I'm trying to get something off the shelf. Has anyone had any experiences they would like to share? cheers
