Default Need help finding a small radiator

-91 CRX SI

I just finished installing my kit and have ran into a couple problems. 1. The half size radiator I was going to use is to tall and to wide. It fits but I can't put any type of down pipe. 2. My TE chipped ecu makes my car run like crap. But at this moment i'am more concern about finding a radiator that fits. Can anyone tell me what radiator thay used and where they got it. I need a radiator that's the same high as a stock CRX radiator and about 10in wide.

call C&R and they'll make you a custom one for $$$$ or you custom fab and make that halfy work.

Stupid Question. But how many cores does a stock CRX or any Civic radiator usually have?

Hey Doc any tips or small comments on how to make it fit? Like what does it sit on? or if you have to cut anything?

Thanks for the pics.

I leaned the radiator back like Doc's pics shows and it worked but know how do i get a fan in there? One step closer to being boosted.

Mount the fan on the front and reverse the wires.

yes, that is an SSauto manifold. Don't make fun of me. I didn't pay for it. I would sell it, but I'd feel bad for the guy I sold it to. Yes, they are complete ---- and no I'm not happy with it.
