Radiator?
I have searched and not found any information on what radiator I should fit, so:
What rad should I opt for to work along with my Zetec 1.8? Also fan? Also, am after s/s tubing for the coolant hoses to fit on. I have located the
samco type hose, but didnt want to run just lengths of hose and rather use s/s tubing inbetween the hoses!
Cheers guys...

Mine is all 32mm and 19mm for the hoses, the rad i used as per most is the early VW polo.
I think water pump was 45mm reducing to 32mm.
Do a search for polo rad and it chucks up loads of info and part number,northern radiators was the best price at time i bought.

Thanks Bob. Your hoses look nice actually so I may just go that route instead of the s/s pipes. Thought they might just look naff but i must admit
yours is tidy!
I will try the search again so thanks for that as the rad you have is again nice and neat
Cheers mate,
John

This was with the Escort rad but I did move to a polo rad which was a similar setup but with the rad inlet on the other side.
