Be Cool Radiator Problem - Kind of a Redux on Earlier Radiator post

XJ-S

Hello, All.
Re: 1990 12 cyl.
Sorry for the New Topic but I don’t know how to put a “continuation spin” on my prior post re: Single Pass radiators.
The Be Cool radiator fittings for the automatic transmission lines are not compatible with the transmission lines.
Anybody solved this mis-match ?
I don’t want to cut the XJS lines if I don’t have to.

Ahoy !
My brother is trying to install a BeCool on 1990 V12. It is not a drop-in/some mods for Jaguar V-12 as advertised. More trouble than it is worth.In hindsight, he would have research other alternatives.
Auto Trans Lines: Be Cool Tech Service is clueless. My brother purchased the the correct fitting from Wizard who knew exactly what is needed. Appears to be available from McMaster-Carr; however, my brother did not measure threads prior to installation.
BeCool $$$ “T” is not an easy fit for, among reasons, it is not a “T” in in a single plane. Yes, much modification to fan shroud and, even the top rail for the banjo fittings.
YMMV
I’ve not yet attempted replacing the radiator.

I have a recently re-cored XJS radiator that has never been installed. High efficiency core.
Will be posting it for sale if you would be interested in an original re-cored rad.
I am in New Jersey.

How much?

I would like $850 for it but can work with someone who needs it. It is not a reproduction brass/copper unit. It is a high efficiency recore on an original.

Good luck. Hope it finds a new home.
I posted a classified for a very serviceable V12 radiator couple years ago after I decided I wanted an aluminum radiator and had the one I removed just taking up space. 100 bucks and buyer pays shipping. No takers

If we’re closer…it probably would be taking space in my garage (I’ve become a bit of a hoarder :-))

Happy Holidays!

To you too Steve. Merry Christmas
You would need to move closer … I told my wife and grown kids when I moved into this house in 2002 that my next move would be the nursing home or the funeral home
