Hi tom can you email me a price on a rad for my 1998 MN6, with all the bells and whistles . Just not the fans .

nastyvette@sympatico.ca

Do you have all the parts in stock, as I need it this week . I will have fedEx pick it up from you and pay my own shipping as I'm in Canada .

Thx

When you say loosen the motor mount. Do you mean just the drivers side motor mount or both? I assume the drivers side mount being loose will allow the motor to pivot up and over to the right.

Since you are going to have a left side eoc, I'd get the #898 hose kit.
will the discount apply to both A01AE and #898 hose kit or just the rad? Does the rad come with lines and fittings for the Tranny cooler or do I need to get that as well and if so, do you offer it, part number?

I don't know what "bells and whistles" mean exactly but all the rads on on the website and just figure 10% off. We do have everything in stock to make these quickly.

To be totaly honest, I've never done it before. Since this has to be fished in between the engine and the motor mount, it would think only one side would be necessary but I can't guarantee that.

The discount is on the radiators and fan kits only.

If you are purchasing a radiator with a trans cooler, you would already have transmission cooling lines running into the stock radiator. Our radiator is built with the exact same port sizes as the stock unit, so nothing is required there

Yes, let me clarify this. If your car has an automatic transmission, the factory radiator will have a trans oil cooler (toc) inside and the cooling lines running from the radiator to the transmission. Our radiator is a Direct Fit replacement, meaning it has the same connections, same size, and same location. You simply have to disconnect these lines and reconnect them to the new radiator. This was always on the passenger side. If you have a manual trans, there was no toc and the transmission has no pump for one.

Tom, sorry for the ignorance and thanks for clarifying. My order will be in tonight to the trans and oil bypass lines.

Just pulled the trigger on a new radiator and hose kit (left side). Thanks for the great Group Purchase.

One question, which SPAL fan kit is for the C5? Need a pull and if it matters, the car is a 2000 but has a 2003 LS6 installed. Thanks again!!

Thanks Tom. Fan kit added to order. My engine will be thankful for the lower temps this summer!

One question, how much volume does this add to the cooling system?

Tom,

Will the shroud and fan kit work ok with the stock radiator for the time being? I think my fans are kicking the bucket and I'd like to upgrade however funds are tight and I can't afford to get the radiator as well at this time.

Thanks,
Matt
