hi guys hoping someone can help me fast, want to fix this tommorow.

i have fitted a 302 windsor from an eb into a xg ute everything was fine untill a fitting i added to the bottom radiator crossover pipe let go loosing all my coolant in the process.


would a radiator from an xf falcon and hoses that would normally be used in a cleveland xe be used.

if there is no easy answer then i guess i will have to add an radiator cap to my top hose and join the over flow from radiator and top hose together, maybe fit a bleed nipple between them or somthing


ideas please????????????

my previous system has been running well for the last year,
i have concerns about the bottom hose not clearing the serpentine belt

hi guys problem solved i just fitted a filler neck inline in the top hose.
removed the header tank all together and fitted an overflow resiviour.then joined the point between the top hose and the top of the radiator. think i might fit a bleed nipple in the middle of this hose.
