Installed Auto Civic Radiator (dual core).

So My radiator has been looking like crap and the car has been having over-heating issues...

I decided just to swap out the radiator...

I got it for like 160 or something at my buddies cost... I'm sure I could've gotten one for less if I spent some time shopping around...

I went with the civic auto instead of the delsol dual core because it has the same size inlet and outlet as the stock civic one so no need to rig up the hoses...

So anyway the install was smooth and easy... It's a little bit of a tight fit... but it clears and doesn't really rub anywhere...

The resivour doesn't sit as low as it used to... but I can live with that.

I however am STILL having the overheating issues occaisionally... I tested for a bag hg with that sniffer fluid crap... and it didn't turn... but I'm gunna do a leak down test soon and recheck for exhaust gases in my rad...

It's making me nuts though.

overall cars running good... got some suspension stuff coming (sort of... nothing really good... just replacement ball joints and some camber crap for if/when I lower the car).

And a new muffler to stop all the tickets/dirty looks... I got a BIG magnaflow universal fit oval muffler... It should quite things down a BUNCH... and I'm gunna order another cat as I seem to have lost my stock one... Hopefully they'll replace it for free as I bought it almost a year ago to the day... and it went bad... but I never filled out the warranty card... oops.
