has anybody ever put a nova turbo diesel radiator on a 2.0 redtop in a nova, they are masive rads and i have the chance to get a very good one, will it keep the engine too cool or will it be an advantage? if anybody has ever done one how did you pipe it up as the inlets/outlets are at opposite ends, cheers jamie

large nova rads (GSI/SR etc) are more than adequate even for the 2.0 engines.
I doubt the TDI rad would have the outlets/inlets in the right place.

the pipes are all wrong on it, they dont mate up nicely. I ran a 1.2 fucked one on mine an it was fine.

got a big rad ready but wondered if a bigger one would be better?

as stated, the gsi/gte/sri up to the job, the go from lower pannel to slam panel, big enough if you ask me
