BusaDude Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 I have a 2007 Short sand car with the stock dual motorcycle radiator's mounted in the engine bay. I am having overheating issues so I have installed a new GM aluminum radiator up high behind the seats. I am not sure where to connect the line from the engine block where the thermostat is located. There is a the radiator hose connection and another smaller line which is the same size as the overflow line. It appears to be pressurized as it flows slowly once the engine warms up. Do I need to feed this back into the radiator? If so, which side. Inlet or Outlet? Appreciate the help Quote
dunefreak Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 When I had my Busa SSC, it was tee'd into the upper radiator hose. This is the only pic I could find that shows it. Pretty sure it's the same line you are referring to. 1 Quote
BusaDude Posted November 2, 2015 Author Posted November 2, 2015 I believe that solves my problem. It also saves me the trouble of welding on a new nipple on the radiator.. Thank you for the help. Quote
BusaDude Posted November 3, 2015 Author Posted November 3, 2015 Thanks for the response and pic. This was helpful and solved my problem, It also saved me the time and money of having to have another nipple welded onto my radiator. I appreciate the help.

duner69 Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 So were you able to solve the overheating issue after installing your new rad? Quote
