Dan,

Our vertical flow radiator fits just fine with the 1275 in our bugeye.  We 
have the six blade metal fan rather than the plastic fan but do not know if 
that would make a difference.  Sounds like something else has changed or is 
out of place.  Did they change the core size on the radiator for instance.

the radiator back yesterday and it does not fit.  Do
I just need to put in the original water pump pulley
or is this a larger problem?  I was looking at the 
pictures of Frank Clarici's in British Car Magazine
and it looks as if he is running with an original
radiator.  Anyhow it was late and I thought I would
send an email to the list and save myself a couple
of hours of fiddleing.

Thanks,
