radiator and oil cooler problem

[howie87]

hi ive just got myself a 89 h1 to do up but ive run into bit or a snag.
i cant figure out how to fit the oil cooler to the radiator.
in the manuels it shows a large curved rad but mines a straight one
can any one help? any pic would be good to thanks

you should have two brackets coming down off the rad/engine mounts with tabs sticking in with nuts spot welded on you can bolt the oil cooler to, as in the right hand side of this pics:

hope this helps!


don't take the h model manual off here as gospel, its for a h2!

thanks mate.my brakets only have space for the raiator.
the onluy place i can see that it will fit is on the four tabs on the bottom of the rad juat not sure it will be strong enough to hold it

i think the H1 or zx4 does'nt have an oil cooler, just the small rad.
under the sump does it have 2 inlets for the oil cooler pipes? if not dont bother with the oil cooler.
If it does, maybee see if you can get a h2 setup?
on the h2 the oil cooler bolts straight to the rad

yeah is has the holes in the sump
im half way through making a bracket.
just waiting on bits!
