Swiftech MCR-220 Radiator Pics

Yellowhello · August 8th, 2007

NOTE: Does NOT come with barbs!!

It's much lighter than I thought. Really good paint job, though (doesn't scratch easy). Doesn't come wit barbs. do ya think that they sell barbs at Home Depot?

Jeez, the damn thing looks like a $39.95 heater core for a 1939 Chevy

:la ugh:

Seen one just like it the other day at Auto Zone

Thats pretty much all these radiators are, the first water setups used old heater cores. The ones I've seen were from a Honda Civic. The boxed PC labeled ones just have mounting brackets for fans

Well, because it didn't come with barbs, I ordered a pair of D-Tek ones. Hopefully there pretty good. I dodn't know about D-Tek as a company. Are they quality?

Yes D-tek is good quality. Make sure you chose the right fittings.

I got these.................... I'm using 3/8in tubing, so is that the right ones?

I'm a fan of the Swiftech pump and CPU block, but I'd strongly recommend against their kits.........I've tinkered with them, and awful manual aside, found them to be more of a pain than they were worth

I didn't order a kit.............. Just happened to be all Swiftech parts.

I'm a big fan of Danger Den custom kits, excellent quality.
