Radiator Options?

[deansbimmer]

I live in Texas and the temps frequently get over 100 in the summer. I'm looking for some radiator options that will keep my M52 cool. Just by looking at the e30 radiator, I wonder how it will keep things cool. Can an e36 rad work? I would LOVE to have a Fluidyne, but dont have the coin.

Anyone have any input on this?

I think e30 rad is just as good if not better than a e36 radiator, I think you will be fine with what you have. Dual electric fans might help you out.

170 bucks...No crappy e36 units apply. They have bigger ones and they are far cheaper than 700 for the other pwr unit.

I don't believe so.

That Summit Model looks nice. Looks like the in and out are in ok spots, but what about the sensor bung? Is it going to work with my setup, or are they all the same? Thanks guys

You will have to tap in a sensor bung.

e36 rad. + dual electric fans + water wetter = perfect

They just fail to often.

I have plans for a single 16" Spal fan. Does anyone know the tap size for the bung?
