milesz Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I recently purchased a 27' x 19' Griffin radiator from a dude on Craigslist. I read on line that this was the size dimension I need for my 240z. I really like the radiator but it don't go down all the way (not fitting). What do you suggest how I can get it to fit? Thanks in advance for any help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chavo Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I bought Griffin 26x19 and it was too big also. Don't think its worth trying to make it work. It's too tall to close the hood and the other alternative is to cut into the chassis, but this is no bueno either. I just returned mine for a smaller one.
