I heard that its possibile to use a del sol radiator in a 89 hatch with a b16 swap. Is this true? If so, what year would i need?

 

I'm assuming by del sol radiator you mean the half-style radiator? Yeah, you can use them, but with the stock front crossmember you might have to "gangster lean" the radiator as it wont bolt up correctly in the car. Also, you will most likely have to cut on your radiator fan shroud so the aftermarket header (if you have one) wont melt the plastic. As for what year..any half-size radiator is basically the same and will fit w/ some modification. I suggest you get a traction bar first and then the radiator because the radiator will mount correctly to the traction bar.

Good luck, i'm planning on doing the same thing.

 

^ i agree with the above.

get the del sol VTEC model radiator. i believe its a dual core and the water necks are 1.5" like all other B series.

 

Dual core eh? Sweet, imma check them out.
