My VS 2 Senator # 921

[VS 5.0]

Mine is standard rad and clutch fan too.

Rightio. I know that no 2 cars of age will be the same so will keep an eye on it.

Another question. Trans oil coolers. Which is best and why? Plate and fin or stacked plate?

 

[Wombles]

Wouldn't the standard fin be best?
If you want, I have one that came off my Wagon. Took it off as I've gone manual. Still has lines attached.

Very nice car mate, my experience with the temp gauge (at least on VR/VS) is they all vary a lot on where they sit as "normal". That's why Holden didn't mark them in degrees. Its more important whether it fluctuates, or rises, if it doesn't other than normal you're all good. If your concerned chuck another gauge on it temporarily and compare. Re the trans cooler biggest you can fit

Thanks Wombles. I'll get a new one with the rad so if anything stuffs up I can go back to the shop to repair it .

Thanks for that. Mines definitely moving around so I guess it's working.

G'day Hoska. I'm away for the next 10 days but will get a pic when I get home. I was told that the 10 bolt's aren't made any longer by DBA in the slotted series so you may have trouble finding them. I didn't check the standard rotors though.

Is yours running a 'standard' radiator?

Yeah Mate it is

I have a PWR transmission cooler on mine, I will throw up a pic this arvo

 

[Senator829]

As Promised,



My Radiator and temp sensor for twin elec thermo fans. Only issue I have as the Fan shroud is missing, nothing is sealing the bottom of the air intake off.

 

[Scruba]

Decent size unit that one. Is yours running a pwr steering cooler?
