I AM GOING TO YELL THIS!

THE V6 AND V8 AREN'T THE SAME. THE INLINE 6 AND THE V8 ARE THE SAME, BUT THERE IS A VARIENT FROM A DUEL TYPE CORE TO A SINGLE/STANDARD CORE.

So I guess there is no benefit from putting a V8 radiator into a I6 AU then

Thanks i'm just not as knowledgable as you are, cheers

None are...

There could be a benefit if the radiator is a dual or triple core product.

thanks, Autospeed must have put on a poor article then.

It said that if you put in a bigger radiator (from a more powerful car) then it might help with overheating

ill see if i can dig up that article

found it: http://www.autospeed.com/cms/A_109734/article.html

If you want a bigger radiator then just buy one and retrofit it.
