Albs, just make sure you breaker has a seperate autobox oil cooler, and the aux electric water pump attached to the rad fan cowling.  If it does, the rad will fit Sam's car perfectly.  :y

You may well be right.  I'd need to have a look at mine in daylight to be sure.  :-\

Yeah, but only solar powered ones!  :D

Since you asked so nicely, I've just been and had a look...  ::)

I can't see any blanks where the pipes would connect to mine.  :-\  That's not to say your rad won't be ok for Sam, but it might have slightly less capacity that a proper 3.2 one.

In fact, IIRC I helped P6UL K out of a muddle with a rad from a MFL V6 with built-in intercooler for his 3.2 manual.  :y

Could well have been a replacement. Genuine rads for late model 2.6/3.2 don`t have the in-built coolers

What year is your car Sam?  IIRC it's not a really late 3.2.  So following Rob's advice, you may well find that Albs' rad will be a direct replacement.  :y
