swapping a 93 ls motor into a 93 civic, will the civic rad work ok or do I need the teg rad? and will the civic ac compressor bolt on the ls motor? thanks.

 

If the radiator is original to the car it no doubt has a lot of miles on it. I would recommend getting a Del-slow dual core radiator. It has a higher capacity and is a direct fit replacement. go to http://www.radiators.com

As for the AC. For the B18 or B16 you need the Del-sol AC bracket. The civic compressor will bolt right to it. Do not release the pressure in the lines! just remove the compressor and hang it to one side with some wire or something.

Mine went kaput after only 2 months following a B18C1 swap. Do what Mike says above, check out that site and get a radiator made for a DOHC VTEC. I purchased an all metal dual core radiator for a 97 Del slow si and it was $130 shipped to my door which took 5 mins. to install.

 

If you use the dual core from the del sol vtec, will it still fit with the AC fans, condensor etc?

 

will the integra radiator fit a 6G civic? would it be better to get a radiator for an automatic civic?

 

teg rad will fit the 6g and 5g civic fine, just make sure to make your own mounts and have it floating and not tide down so it has some movement and wont flex and brake.

 

Is it possible to use benen radiator mounts? http://www.benen.com to check them out. Also what to do about the bottom of the radiator in a 5g hatch? I heard some welding needs to be done.
