Default B series radiator questions...

Are all B series radiators the same size? I heard they are dual core or something vs the D series single core? The main thing is the inlet outlet stuff.

What are you trying to do is the real question...there are differences between the radiators between the chassis...so no not ALL b-series radiators are the same.

yeah B series in a car that was D series. I heard the cooling is just enough to get by but isnt really sufficient? What B series radiato is best fit for a EK chassis? Is there a difference between GSR and Type R radiators?

where did you get it and how much? I'm just not sure if the D series one will be enough. I hate to ruin something so expensive.

We got it from Full Race. But, if you order trough them, make sure they have it in stock, and make sure you call them everyday for a few days after you order to make sure they actually sent it out. We had a problem with them when we ordered the traction bars and the radiator from them.

I used a sohc radiator for a LONG time and it cooled fine...we are using a SOHC radiator in a H22 Ef and it cools just fine too.
