Nice job on getting the old motor out.:) However that radiator looks like it has seen better days. You can get a stock replacement from www.radiator.com for 120 bucks.

Eh, I just bought that one brand new for $70 in town here. So, off I go again, if it actually punctured it. If the fins are all messed up, I dont care about those.

Knowing how long it takes you to install shit, it will probably be a year before you even get the MPFI shit in your car if he sold it to you :hehehe:

That's not cool :D :eek: :rolleyes:
I know it takes 4 ever 4 me to do anything but u'd understand if u had 2 small kids, worked 2 jobs & commuted 2.5 hours a day. I could have someone else doing my shit but I don't trust shops & I like the experience. Someday i'll have my car just how i want it, if my wife quits asking me to mow the lawn & do shit around the house:hehehe: :hehehe: Come to think of it, maybe i'll never get done!

It's a kamikaze 4 into 1 header. You can have it for free when I get my new one.

I had the sohx zc in my first hatchback.
The kit is a Wings West RS, minus a front bumper. I am still waiting on that,

I have never removed a radiator on a swap. This time I was lazy and didnt remove the front engine mount. Thats what messed it up.
But hey, the radiator does NOT leak now, so its all good.
