    Radiator swap

    Has anyone used a late 325i or M50 radiator with a 325e? I'm slowly gathering parts for the S50 swap which I'll either be doing in this car or an M3. My radiator is leaking like a pig now and I'd like to at least replace the system with one that I can use with the swap.

    Any input is appreciated, as always. :)

    e28 radiators fit with a slight mod. The top bolts up. The bottem need some easy to make brackets. (at lest it did on my '89 325is)

    Honestly it's not much bigger than the stock m20 radiator. And seening that guys run tiny stock radiators on 2.5 s14 tell me that the colloing system is not a really week point on bmw's....

    Some one on this board is running a e36 radiator. (the guy with the blue car, and has his k+n filter sitting right behind his front wheel)

        I've been running an E30/M42 radiator on my M50 conversion.
