Default custom radiator for swap

Is there a company that make a radiator to fit into an EG with a H series swap?

Is the clearance that bad? Why not just get a single core fluidyne? I'd need pics to properly answer this question as I can't visualize how close the motor is to the rad...

We used a Integra Radiator for the H series swap. You just need to make the brackets for it

I was just readin up on the swap on some site and they said custom rad and axles. Maybe the site was out of date. Thinkin about doin it, just not sure if I can make it handle well or If I want to spend the money to do so.

So whats up with the axles? Which one do you need? Also which cat?

Hey RicoD which fan did you use on the rad?

I also used a Teg radiator. Take a look at this DIY for more info: http://www.hybridgarage.com/tech/jsrad/jsrad.html

I use a FAL fan for a Civic on my rad and it works great. Had to cut up the mounts a bit to make it fit, but works like a charm.
