V8 Radiators

Recommended Posts

The original radiator on my V8 90 has started to leak.

Paddock have an ESR76 for £78

or an ESR203 for £229

They are both without the oil cooler but does anyone know the difference between the two ?

Mine is a 1991, standard 3.5 twin SU. Has always run a bit hot but never into the red.

I don't mind paying a bit more to have some cooling in reserve but I'd like to know what changed from ESR76 to ESR203 and are they interchangable.

Also is there likely to be much difference between genuine LR and the cheap ones sold by the likes of Paddock ? LR want about £330 which seems a bit OTT.

I think the VIN range (I'm an HA7+) means I need the expensive one.

Unless someone knows what changed and I can make the early one fit . . .

The VIN's in EPC are

Radiator V8 ESR76 To (V) FA428918

&-------------ESR203 From (V) FA428919 --- HA7***** drops into this one

next rad in parts list is ESR204 To (V) JA 918061 for 3500 cc - L/R - V8 - Petrol - Twin Carburettor - oil cooler (air cooled) @ 2002 prices was 310 + vat

hope that helps :D Sorry haven't got a clue what changed, can't tell from the parts drawings.
