the radiators are a direct fit, no issues what so ever. Hoses are all ok, same place, same position etc...

I have now finished fitting the fairing, no clearance issues.

No idea yet if it is money well spend or not, the radiator cores are about 8 mm thicker.
I'll you know about any improvements next week.

samco just stronger walled, can handle higher pressure, lighter, higher temp resistant and abrasion, oil and some chemical resistance resitant, and look the part, work especially well on inlet side of intercooled turbos! i need some for my zafira but they come with a hefty price tag, and a hell of a job to fit to the VX
