Anyone got a metal take off for the end of the thermostat so I can get rid of the plastic bit? Ideally want something I can just push my new rad pipe over and jubalee on instead of the push inside with retaimer clip on the standard rad pipe

The only ones like that I know Of are for 205's for a different rad hose. Think it woul have to be somewhat longer to use on a 6 hose and go in past the metal clip part.

A 205 one would be fine as I am going to make up my own top rad pipe to do away with the oil cooler take off and I will be running a r5 turbo alloy radiator too. I just cant seem to find the ones used on 205s?

This may be a daft question but I don't have the 205 part to look at, can it be mounted to the bbm adapter so that the outlet is facing backwards?
Don't suppose you still have one for sale if that idea is possible do you mei? Smile

You should be able to run them backwards as they only have 2 fixing points what are both located the same distance apart but it will be pointing upwards. Why do you want it pointing backwards?

I'm wanting to use a laminova cooler, so my idea was to have it facing backwards, then have a 180 degree hose that goes from that into the laminova, then i can have a relatively straight hose running from the other end of the laminova into the top of the radiator.

I think i'll be getting a different radiator for the setup so the new one probably won't have any fittings to suit the heat exchanger hose.
