Kevin,
Thanks for the clarification on radiator types. .
My radiator from the Suzuki does hit the underside of the bonnet . . the cap
hits it just a bit. I was able to angle it back enough so that this is not
a problem. . but it might be that the radiator I am using is more like one
from a manual gear box car. . and the Swift was also a manual car.
I have been so happy with the way it runs so cool all the time. And it is
not any bigger than the stock radiator in terms of rows . . or size? So it
eludes me as to why it is so much more efficient?
