I was wondering if one of you could hook me up with the approximate dimensions of the stock GT radiator. I need height and width overall, as well as the distance from one edge to the middle of the bottom mounting plug, and the distance between the two mounting plugs.

If you happen to have the dimensions for the Koyo version, that would be great too.

Thanks,
J.

I got these for you:
Width 26 1/4"
Height 17" or 18 1/2" if you measure from the top of the radiator cap
the length of the bottom mounting plug itself is 5/8" (not included in the height measurement above)
and the distance between the center of the two bottom mounting plugs is 21 1/2"

I didn't really understand your description of the other measurements you needed. but if you let me know I can get those for you too.

just fyi, those are dimensions from a GT with a manual trans. I don't know if there is a difference between the radiators on a manual and an auto, but I think the koyo one says it only fits cars with a manual, which leads me to believe that there might be a difference.

What do you need this for? I have the radiator from an auto in my car, so I'll check it out tomorrow to see if it's different than the manual size. I've heard it was bigger, so when it came time to get a new one I just went with the auto.

if this is for some custom radiator project, I could send you my old radiator. it's got a leak so it's useless to me, so just pay shipping and it's yours. I'm sure it could be shipped to so-cal for like $5 or $10.

^I may take you up on that. I'd wanted the dimensions because I was thinking of trying to mount a Koyo rad in my '93 alltrac. Besides the normal fitment issues, I also wonder if there will be any major problems with the Koyo being for a 5sfe engine as opposed to the 3sgte thats in my 'trac. Probably a long shot that I will ever be able to do it, but it would be nice, since the Koyos are ~$375 right now, whereas a regular replacement rad is $400-500 from toyota.

I found a good deal on my koyo radiator at this site:
http://intensepower.com/newkoyalrad.html
When I bought it it was on sale for $300, plus $30 shipping. it's still pretty cheap though at $325.

the koyo radiator is about the same length and width as a stock radiator, but it's about twice as thick. I'd say probably about 2" thick, maybe 2.5".
