So my radiator cracked and i'm installing my new one and i removed the a/c (which i already removed) evaporator from infront of it. I want to run my Maro without it being infront of my radiator so that it gets uninterupted air flow. but when i put the rad. in i noticed that it seemed to seat a little loose. so i'm wondering if the radiator would get too hot to use zip ties to secure it????

Any ideas?????? Confused

Rad is only secured with that top 4 bolt plastic piece.

Make sure each rad corner has it's respectful rubber pad.

No Zip ties. Don't ghetto rig.

Sounds like you removed the AC radiator? If so, plug the gaps at the perimeter of the engine radiator with backer rod. It will keep a high pressure area at the front of the engine RAD while driving. Basicly stop the air from going around the RAD.
