Radiator change issues - please help!!

[nakigirl]

Hi, I've got a m8 putting in a radiator from a m8's crashed V8 VU (I think)6lt ute into my 5.0 VT SS. It doesn't have a fill cap on top of it, it looks to have fed from a reservoir only - where as mine had a reservoir bottle to the right of the radiator & a fill cap on top of radiator. We're having trouble with the different hose setup. Can anyone please help with a diagram or instruction of hose placements. TYIA.

Won't fit don't waste your time, you need to get a VT radiator to go in your VT notnone from a VE.

Agree - wont fit

Search this forum for a recommended brand/supplier of radiator for VT.

Have just found some documentation that tells me it's out of a VU, not a VE as previously thought.

5 litre vs LS radiator just buy the correct one for the car if hoses and everything fit up can always find an overflow reservoir and see if you can run it. Forget where the second hose from reservoir goes whether it's somewhere else on rad or in the piping.

Thank you.
