Hi all as you may tell from my Avatar im not a regular at these forums... however im after some information on the Magna radiators..

I have done a little research at my local Nick & Payless and if im not mistaken both the inlet and outlet are on the drivers side? what i need to know now is how many cores are they, do they vary between models, and what are the general dimensions for height, width and depth.

also is there a centre divider in these to force the coolant accross the entire cooling surface or can it just flow straight down to the inlet still half uncooled?

Im looking to upgrade the cooling capacity of my little toy so all help will be greatly appreciated :)

Heya,

Umm, this stuff i can't remember off the top of my head - but I will have a look when i get home and take measurements for you as well.

It is a big one though (well in teh 3rd gen with teh V6's - very large radiator!)

I will be home in about 3-4 hours - so yeah - look again about then!!

thanks appreciate that.. I know its quite big thats why im interested... got to try and keep my engine cool when im on the track in summer.. just need the dimensions to see if it will fit up against the apron

I have a 3.5L TH and hte measurements of mine are as:

760 x 400 x 50

The radiator hose comes in top on the drivers side (not on the actual side but near the edge) and the bottom hose goaes out the bottom corner (oppostite corner) so the hoses are not both on teh same side.

See the attached pictures for the top hose placement - will see what i can find in regards to more pics for you if you need them

hmm ok I think the one i was looking at was an earlier model? I will have to go back to P&PL to have a better look as they were definately on the same side.

the top outlet was sorta offset like that too

thanks for the effort though really apreciate that :)

glad to help mate!!
