Sorry, don't know!
At least I responded!
Nah, this forum is a little slow from time to time, give it a while.

Nevermind, just reread your post dates, you have been giving it a while(DAMN)!
Try http://www.resource.crx.org
good luck

you can swap a b16a rad in that bad boy with little modification. the one from the 94-97 delsol v-tec, or the 99-00 Si i think both those will kewl the b18c1 fine... and get outta the way for a turbo or sum nice headers. also try removing the zc components i dont know about you but I think the engine bay in a honda looks so much cleaner after the ac is gone, but thats just me

i believe you can stuff a dual core radiator in there. This is what i want to do to make room for a turbo. You will have to custom fabricate radiator mounts though. I heard that this will even cool your engine better than the stock one. but honestly either way you go you will still have the same amount of space in teh bay. if you go with the stock radiator it is longer but thin so it gives you space to work with, if you go with a dual core it will free up some space on the drivers side front right behind the headlight but it is thicker so you will reduce space behind the passenger side light. I have heard that you if you take out the ac, you can move up your radiator forward more to give you some space but i am not positive. anyone know about this?

I believe the radiator of choice is the Del Sol VTEC radiator, which is a dual-core design with metal endtanks. Not too sure about the endtank bit, though . Also, you could get a Fluidyne radiator or a Toyo radiator, both of which are much better than the OEM CRX radiator. The Fluidyne in particular is guaranteed to cool WHATEVER you're running whereever you're running, be it turbo, NOS, supercharger, or any combination of the above. I think it goes for $500.
