The top radiator hose connection is right below the filler cap on my current radiator. the new radiator im going to buy the top hose connects to the front of the radiator. can i just spin the thermostat housing. will the hose line up? |

nah, you`ll need to change both the top rad bracket & the thermostat housing to get it right some people bodgey things & drill the holes in the housing bigger & cut the bracket up & stuff around to make things "sort-of" fit tho but sorry, that`s not the done thing in my books other people would have the new radiator modified to make the old style-positioned pipe turn into the new style-positioned pipe... just a thought for you to mull around in your head

Just a thought might be worth looking at a bunch of hoses at repco-suppercheap-autobahn etc to see if any hoses would have the correct bends hose size etc to fit yours . Cheers Bill |
