Thread: Half Size Radiators?

I got a cx racing half sized rad and I'm running regular hoses off another vehicle that I had to cut to get them to fit right but the rad is untouched... I'll post a pic of it later if I can

Lol, I'm the one that text u for those pics lol. What car and year those hoses came off of?

lol im still trying to remember what car they came off of... i had the part number somewhere just cant find it at the moment

Please find it cause ill have mine in 2 days.....!!!!!

anybody else got any new pics of their half rad setup, just wanna see if anyone have come up with some new style/setup in the last month or so

Back from the dead, where are you guys mounting your half sizers? Pics would be grand. I'm goin half size, and just wondering what others are doin?

this is how Jeff had is

Anyone running these with their half sized rad? No thermo option....

With the sleeved block i notice that the coolant temp wants to stay quite a bit higher than with an oem sleeve block. My temps on a regular block with an electric water pump and no thermostat would rarely get above 180 deg even on 120+ degree summer days, now my temp will run at 200-210 after cruising for a while if the temp outside is even in the 70's. Big difference in heat transfer from the iron sleeves vs the stock sleeves that are surrounded by aluminum.

Might need to go with a 3 core civic radiator vs the 2 core one im using now.
