    M20 radiator in M42?

    How difficult is it to put an M20 radiator in an M42?

    My M42 radiator sprung a leak and I have a near new M20 radiator sitting close by.

    Gut instinct says buy a new M42 radiator and skip the hassle. Im wondering how I would bleed the M20 system (with different external reserivor).

    Thanks!

      Interesting, thanks!

      Extra radiator capacity might be handy on a track car!

        Took me about 30 mins. Works well.

          I ended up just getting a new M42 radiator. Capacity seems sufficient and its plug and play!

          Thanks guys!
