[Enriquez2000]

Does anyone know what this goes too?

Using this radiator for my m50 swap

Dont think I need it but want to know what its supposed to go to.

So does the blue drain valve open it?

Sorry just not what Im used to seeing

Yes, the blue valve opens the drain. Then when you break it, you can buy another valve. The valve can be purchased separately fron the radiator.

Nice! Thank you!

and you can put a length of tubing onto it so that it will drain without dumping coolant all over. It's a nice feature-
until you break the valve, or it starts leaking, or it never sealed right from the beginning...
or the expansion tank pops.
