510 performance radiator question

[skunk]

So iv done some searching but im in a rush and am not having much luck with my search.I would just keep searching but i my dead line is this weekend.

 

I have a friend at work and he told me last night that his brother who works for a parts warehouse is helping clean out some back stock at one of there buildings.

So long story short the guy owes me some $$$ and is going to hook me up with a radiator. He told me just give him some makes/models and he'll find me one.

 

So what should I tell him? I want something that going to run my l20 well no matter what I do to the engine in the future.

The 620 L20B also came in 3 core. Don't know if it will fit a 510.

 

For years I used a 3 core '79 200sx rad in my truck. Not a perfect fit.

 

There's articles in dime quarterly about swapping a Fiero aluminum rad into 510s.

Fiero V6, cools VG30's all day long in Phoenix heat. Aluminum core, plastic tanks, and the inlets/outlets are on the correct sides/places. Can even use a cut down stock lower hose, but you need to lengthen the upper hose.

I've got the fiero with my l20 cools it so nice. Haven't seen any real heat since I've owned it tho.

VW Rabbit - 79-83 has the rad cap on it, use the late 80's scirocco and use an in-line rad cap set up. they fit well, but require some 'hosery' - DQ has an install for it. aluminum core with round tubes, 2 row.
