so im drilling new holes for my custom electric fan shroud, and, pop, the drill goes right through the radiator...

long story short, i need a radiator, is an fc radiator an upgrade to an fb? will it fit? anybody wanna just send me one if i pay shipping?

Thanks!!!

 

I do believe that they will switch out, that is what i have heard, no personal experince sorry.

 

i too would like to know this, so can some one answer his question?

 

An FC radiator is not a drop-in. It will take a bit of fabrication to get it to work. And, quite frankly, I can't see it as being much of an upgrade anyway. You're better off using a factory spec radiator IMO. I bought a new one from www.radiators.com and I'm very happy with it. Good luck!

 

so i'm guessing u went into a tube with the drill? i've done it too. it would be cheaper to have a rad repair shop solder it up if it's not too bad, or take it out completely, meaning, each end of the damaged tube is pulled out of the header and the hole in the header is filled with solder. and no it wont hinder it's ability to cool the engine. or u could check out local salvage yards.

 

if you really need to drive this thing today twist the damaged tubes over wuth some needle nose pliers install some alumina weld powder in with the coolant and rock on. Did that at the race track after we punched the car in the side of an Eprod Integra in Qualifing Good Luck
