    All,

    Just an FYI: I installed an aluminum radiator in my Mondial 8, with double fans from Ebay (Winner Racing). It arrived in 5 days from China and works perfectly. I came with a small dent from shipping but nothing major. I did not weigh it, but its something like half the weight of the original. I wired it up so that both fans turn on together (I have no AC, BTW). Together they consume 9-10 amps --- my single original consumed 6-7 amps.
    Seems to work great!

    Looks good, I may do something similar with my 308 GT4 as I'll probably lose the aircon anyway.

    You can buy from Ebay (Winner Racing). They are in China and claim/seem-to-be the manufacturer of many radiators for many cars.

    Looks great. Wondering of this would fit my 3.2 - I think so. I’m guessing there is no bleed screw? Also, what’s the relevance of air conditioning (I have it)? Cheers, Mark

    Earlier cars, not sure the cutoff date, that had two fans and AC would run one fan until the AC kicked in and then the second one would turn on with the air conditioning.

    My '85 QV Coupe only has one fan, and AC. I was considering a 2 fan upgrade. It seems like there is existing wiring to support the second fan already in place. Am I opening the proverbial "Can Of Worms" with this? I am nervous about connecting two fans to the single circuit as electricity is not my friend.
    Opinions?

    There is a wire already provided where a second radiator can be put. And on the fuse board you just have to instal a relais ending 113 on this place =

    I did instal a second radiator on my QV from 82 with good results.So, there is already a second circuit for a second radiator.
