Hello,
No need to go to the trouble of fitting a none OEM radiator. Just remove
your current unit and have it made into a three core radiator. It will cost
you from $100 to $150 to have this done.
I had a 1600 that ran hot often. Even though I had a new thermostat and
pump. Well, the radiator job did the trick. I received the advise from some
of the members on the list and I now pass it on to you.
BTW... make sure that you use the correct radiator cap. I am not sure but I
believe that it is a 7lb cap.
