First thoughts...


-well packed
-arrived quickly from China
-Looks quite nice
-Looks too small...

Looking at google images of 128 rads i think maybe mine is not the stock unit. the mounting holes for the fan in my car are about 20" apart, on the new unit they are less than 17" apart. Can any 128 owners measure the distance between holes that mount the fan to the rad?

Thanks

George

16-1/4 Inches

That's the dimension between the upper mounting studs on my 1974 model year 128, I believe later model years used a wider radiator, so the one you received is for earlier models.

FWIW, the smaller radiators work just fine as long as they are in good condition and flow well, I have an uprated 1500 in my 128 and it never runs hot, no matter how hard I drive or how hot the weather is.

Thanks Dave. My car is a 73 so would the small size actually be original? Rither way im gonna need the smaller fan shroud...

Understatement...

Looks nice is understatement.
Looks freakin' awesome beyond words.
Bling factor alone is worth price of admission.
And light as a feather.
Ten thumbs up!
