Can't use the stock radiator? Thought with the SR being smaller you could use the KA's radiator....

you can use the stock radiator, but i think youre better off with an SR radiator..then again you could just get a better radiator that already fits...:D

Any Ideas on a used radiator that could fit? I don't want to be cheap but when I do the swap I have a feeling that I will run out of money.

I mean a radiator from another car.............

umm..hmm..i dunno. i dont think any other radiator from another car would fit without some modifications to the mounting brackets or whatnot. i think aftermarket would be the way to go.

THe SR and KA radiators are the same. The only difference being the location of the outlet on the top. Notice how on some SR installs they have a radiator tube crossing infront of the engine? That's the KA radiator. The only advantage of the SR radiator is the outlet is on the right instead of the left.

Ah good. I have a pair of electric fans that I am going to install by next summer. I didn't want to run into any trouble with fitment on a different radiator.
