Default Radiator core on C60S orginally 3 inches

Well I've tried to post a response, about the 35mm thick core twice and neither of them has posted so I'll try again.

Measured the core on the original radiator on my C60S it is 3 inches or 76mm thick. This radiator has no problem cooling the 261 engine with the original 7 bladed fan and using all the pulleys from a 216 engine.

I suspect that the 35mm thick core man just not have enough heat radiating area particularly if it is not being operated with antifreeze and 15 psi cap, if the radiator was designed as a pressure system. CMPs originally were not a pressure system.

Cheers Phil
