Well it was time to replace the radiator in my car due to a crack in the cap. Well I figured I’d go with a Fluidyne and that I might as well replace the fans with some FAL 225 fans for a 94-01 Integra. It takes some modding to the fan shroud and some custom brackets but it will fit. On with the pics.
I decided to upload the pics to G2IC instead of to my Photobucket so they will stay with the thread. Instead of not working if I put them on photobucket and then later removed them.
Pic 1 - Modded FAL fan shroud.
Pic 2 - New cutout for upper radiator spout.
Pic 3 - Cutouts for pieces to left & right of upper radiator spout.
Pic 4 - Enlarged cutout for lower radiator spout.
Pic 5 - New radiator, heater & coolant hoses, thermostat, and clamps from Acura.
Pic 6 - Custom made bracket on left, FAL bracket (to mount to stock radiator) on right. I made 4 brackets and put a layer of 3/8" rubber foam on radiator contact surfaces.
Pic 7 - Before pulling stock radiator & fans out.
Pic 8 - After pulling stock radiator & fans out.
Pic 9 - Fluidyne radiator & FAL fas with custom brackets on. I ended up removing the upper driver side bracket as it was in the way of one of the AC lines. Also the lower driver side bracket I straighted out like the rest cause it was hitting something at the bottom.
Pic 10 - New setup in the engine bay.
