Any body weighed this radiator. I'm considering swapping to a front mount, to free up some power from not running the mechanical fan. I was also hoping to save some weight at the same time. My current alloy rad, cowl and fan weighs about 3.5kg

You need to take water volume into the equation too matt.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

Why does it hold more water?

It quite possibly could. And there are different styles, I got stung by a shit one which would have towed to cool a 998! Also any new coolant hoses would prob be longer increasing volume still.

The bare cinq rad with no temperature switch that I have weighs 1.19kg, could save a few grams cutting off a big plastic chunk that doesn't do anything.

I'll measure it and throw a pic up when I get back home, currently taking a faulty graphics card back to pc world after my old card crapped itself yesterday :(

A bit of a thread revival. Does anyone know the thread size for the rad fan switch for these?

My radiator is missing one so need suitable plug, or just buy a switch.
