Currently stuck on my rebuild!


I crashed my accord and I am currently a little past this stage



Now it's time to drop in the radiator but my trany lines don't have anywhere to go as its missing these gold fittings!! Where can I get them? I already tried lowes and Home Depot but nothing will screw onto where it is supposed to go as it has a little flair!



P.S I'll be making a post about my whole build and I have been taking pics! Where do I post that? I just need to connect radiator add hood and passenger fender and air cleaner

 

AFAIK you cannot.
Might be able to make something by using various fittings, but it would probably just to cheaper/easier to find an auxillary cooler and skip the radiator cooler.

 

Did you get a new radiator? The fittings comes on the radiator if new. You have 3 options:

1. Visit a JY or Pull-a-Part
2. ^What Mad-Mike said.
3. Buy a new radiator.

 

I actually got the radiator second hand and forgot to check if they where there!

Where can I get one for cheap? I've only seen them for around 40?

 

Go to a local radiator shop and see if they have some laying around. I have a few in the garage, replaced the rad in a few manual trans cars with an aftermarket rad....meaning it had the ports/fittings for an auto but since the car was a manual I didn't need them. Threw the fittings into my little junk pile (coffee can full of stupid little stuff that comes in handy every now and then)

 

OH OH! Somebody was not paying attention on the highway.

 

That crease does look like an underider stamp.

 

It's almost complete just need hood and intake! Started it last night and took it for a test drive and ran good
