Looking for a radiator for my 1.8 zetec conversion, is the 1.6 diesel rad the same as an xr2s? Any other better options? I'm just looking for something secondhand trying to keep the expenses down lol
Cheers in advance!

Several people have used a mk3 XR2i radiator. I was using a saxo vts radiator on my old Mk2 which also replaces the header tank. I had to add a small bleed valave to the top of the thermostat housing as it wasnt the highest point in the system. There's a few images halfway down this page on my website: http://www.projectbobcat.com/projects-p ... s-zetec-05

Cheers for the info mate, I've been lucky! I've managed to get my hands on a xr2i 16v rad. Just got to find the time to go pick it up!
