So pissed off, the plastic tank on the side of the radiator that the pipe joins onto has just pretty much exploded when i was in town! HAVE to get the car back on the road in time for PV, so i need to know which radiators will fit the corsa B with C20XE (i had the standard SRi rad in there before). Would it be worth getting an uprated aftermarket one, or will a standard one do the job fine? Any info where to get one from asap would be much appreciated!!

i'm sure the rad from the donor car will be too large for the corsa.

thats what I was told you would have to get the front end adapted to fit it and basically theres nothing wrong with a 1.6 radiator, get one from a scrappie and try it whats the worst that could happen
