Full size radiator question
 
I'm trying to keep costs to a minimum here, i was wondering if anyone was running a full size rad and how the fitment worked for them, im going to be running my hf mani w/ the t25. Anyone broke enough to try this.. btw its in an EE Wagon

i dont think you will be able to run a full size radiator and a hf mani unless you have lots of room, eg half radiators arent that much

I was running a Full-Size Dual Core with a 14b and an HF.

My new setup I plan on keeping it and building the mani to make it work.

How tight of a squeeze was it for you? any rubbing or anything like that?

No rubbing. With a Stock EF Civic Rad I could run everything including stock fan and coolant lines to the turbo.
This past summer I ran an Accord Dual Core Rad. I didn't run the coolant lines, but could have if I wanted too.

Just because everyone has a Half Core Rad, doesn't mean it's nessacry. It's just not easy. I'm planning on a Top Mount Rad with a .60/.63 or a T3/T4 if I can find a house Housing to swap. I want my full width rad. I know it will be tight, but It's a little Challange I would like to have sucess with. Kinda one of those Self-Gratifaction thing to say I did it.
