Heres my 70' LC with a 308 transplant as you can see, currently has a trimatic but is soon to be replaced with a celica 5spd.
Anyone know what kind of radiator this is? I think it maybe a 253 one but not sure.
Cheers

Nice car mate that radiator looks pretty small how does it cope in the summer ? just looking at your motor notice how it sits to the left rail more than the right mine does aswell anyone else notice this ?

Nope it's a a floor shift, as for headers i'm not sure if they are standard or not.
The radiator copes fine but gets warm if I leave it idoling, but have never had it over around 200 degrees. Not sure waht kind it is, hoping someone will be able to tell me?
As for the paint it's slightly more green than what it looks in the pictures. A kind of "aqua" colour.

top lc mate. Wondering who built it? Seen it somewhere before, I met the person through a mate of mine. It was pretty quick, but wheel spin made it a very big problem.
