Hi, I need a rad for my 1973 1.8 SDL does any one know if the Ital 1.7 would fit?

Yes all rads have the same core. The 1.8s and 1.7s have the same mounts, the 1.3s have different pins on the top. There are rads about that have dual pins on the top so they can be used on any Marina or Ital whatever the engine.

A 1.7 rad won't have a filler plug as they are filled through the thermostat housing. They can be fitted to a 1.8 but are a pain to fill!
