The V8 Owners Forum -

Thanks for the quick response mate I have had a measure up and your rad is way too tall I'm afraid ! What I need is something which is about 30" wide by about 14" tall !

Thanks again mate

Thanks kev do you think you could post up some dimensions so that I can have a measure up

I am putting a sbc which is basically stock into a minor I would like to know what radiators other people have used (which cool it ok) into there own cars so that I can try to find one that will work in mine

cheers

Thanks for your replies guys

I had ebc's all round to start with had to change a set on the quick so put some halfords ones in but it didnt make any difference. That was why I thought it was the servo

Your four pots do look nice I'll have to start searching the local breakers and see what I can find

Nice action son

and if you can get Amy to throw a 6 speed in her case I would be very grateful

Thank you

Hi mate yeah I think I sort of met you last year at the classic ford day at pod but you were quite busy having just made your quickest pass to date ! I have the 2 l servo as well as the mondeo calipers and cossie discs on the front and the granada rear calipers on discs on the rear. I just plumbed t...

Hi Tony I am new on here and was just wondering what servo you a re using and have you got a bias valve in the mix somewhere as well ?

How did that happen ??
