Back into the rad on the top outlet. The std hose is perfect for it, you just need to tweak the solid pipe angle. You can see it going across the top in this 1st pic then how it loops in on the 2nd.Quote:

You're making me post all the messy pictures of my old nova now before I tidied it all up! lol
That's never a Genuine one. I'd say your dealer out-sourced that rad. Look at the one in Simps's pics, same as mine. I used to have one like what you have. I bought it new from a factors, a Serck replacement rad, but I got shot of it as it had such a thin core & was generally crap. If you see a Valeo one, like mine or Simp's, you'll know what I mean.Quote:

Craig, i see what you mean, maybe thats why i have a bit of extra room...
Never been a prob tho, cooled ok but has been leaking.
Me n Shaun both run ours like that and never had any probs.
As Craig said, your rad is an aftermarket type thin core one, its the same one as ive just fitted to mine, very thin core compared to my old valeo one.
Looking good though, everything nice and clean.
Just remove that mesh and bin it....
Had a good day, big big thanks to Dan, Pete and Dave.
Be cause i want the loom hidden as much as possible the loom needed to be extended, adding to that it needed to be repaired because the owner before had it badly fitted in to a vectra.
Dan set about repairing and extending the loom...
