Radiator: Description and Operation

Radiator





The cooling pack incorporates the radiator assembly with integral transmission oil cooler (located in the radiator outlet tank), an air conditioning condenser, and the cooling fans and cowl assembly.
The cooling pack on supercharged vehicles is the same as described above, but with the addition of a charge air cooler coolant radiator located in front of the condenser.

Radiator Mounting/Retention
The radiator is mounted on four rubber mounts, one on each end of the upper and lower horizontal face. The two lower mountings are supported on two isolated brackets mounted on the body; the lower cradle assembly has subsequently been deleted.
A closing panel made from polypropylene, which retains the radiator assembly, fits over the top of the radiator and is bolted to the vehicle top panel.
