Default HELP!!! Did I order the wrong radiator???

I have an 89 CRX w/ full-race traction bars. I bought a civic half size rad. Is this going to fit in the car? I'm reading now that the full-race traction bar is going to sit the rad. up too high!!! Someone please tell me that this is not the case.

You could sit it behind the traction bar low enough to where it will clear the hood, but you might run into DP clearance issues.

Check out this thread below to see how I mounted my old Fluidyne radiator. However it wouldn't clear my Revhard/DP or my wastegate. So I switched the Fluidyne out to a PWR shorty which I bought from Full Race.

thanks y0!

Your best bet would be to get with Todd from Full Race and order a PWR shorty from them. It's better then having to rigt up the Fluidyne like I did or tilting it waaaay over to make it fit.
