thats like plasma being its own type of matter, it's a whole nother' type that only works for certain things. not as versatile as the other 3 on most things


*as a side note caulk and/or rtv silicone are also in the "plasma" category.

 

Hot glue is effin' dangerous. I like the plasma analogy. I don't **** around with plasma, that's how you burn your fingers.

Yeah I figured the inlet outlets were the same. (Hoping so.)
Just want it to be in the ballpark so I can rig something up!

 

It won't work. The radiator support on the diesels foes deeper down between the frame rails.

I've tried it. No way no how. Hell even a gasser rad from a 90 won't work in a 92 up without mods. The topmounts are different

 

I should really figure out the year of that diesel.. or does it even matter?

I want to say early 90s.. but hell it could be anywhere from 86-95.. And of course, going into an '88.

 

I don't think it matters. Its going to bE way too tall to fit under the hood without modsa of somekind

 

a friend put my 86 f350 diesel radiator in his 85 inline 6 ford pickup said it fit perfect and now it never overheats!

 

I don't see how it would fit. The two diesel rads I had where way too tall to fit.

 

his was a f150 maybe that makes a diff.. they were both 4x4

heres a pic of the radiator

That rad isn't near as big as the ones I had. I had one out of a 85 cab and chassis and it was a lot taller than trhat. Like the radiator support in the pickup was all the way down around the bottom of the frame rails.

 

that is the way my 88 is also. the bottom tank of the rad is actually under the frame rails.

 

ive had 3 80's idi diesel trucks and all 3 had this exact radiator style in them 84 86 86

 

Its been a wile since I've seen one, so I couldn't remember how far down it went, but that sounds right Tom.

 

looks like the difference is with or without A/C according to this..

the very bottom one is the ones ive seen/had

 

ahhh none of mine had ac after all this is alaska.

 

I'm sure more of them in the lower 48 had A/C and what they call Max Cooling, so Kris, it all depeends on what u found.
