Hi, can someone please give me some reasonably accurate EXTERNAL dimensions for a wb v8 radiator?

I consider a tape measure and +/- 5mm to be reasonably accurate for the purpose of this exercise lol.

Ive found a million references to core size which is good, found nothing regarding a complete unit.

cheers

I might have one here somewhere, if no-one else replies i'll see if I can find it. If you are looking to put one in your HJ it will fit easily, you just need a donor WB radiator support and some patience with drilling out spotwelds. Just have to remove some material from either side of the radiator opening and weld the bits in.

Ive already cut up the support, needed to shift radiator 3" forward to clear hotside pipes, down 2" to clear bonnet bracing in new position and allow for 4" thick aftercooler behind grill.

Im trying not to have to get a big custom Al thing made($$$$$).

Wb seems to be the largest core I can find that has inlet/outlet in the right place and will probably fit where i need it and is a fair increase in surface area over the HJ thing im using (i think ill need it)

thanks in advance
