An M3 radiator will fit a M42/M44 engine?

for a 4 or 6 cylinder? my shop couldn't find an aluminum 4 cyclinger radiator replacement for the ti or i would have certainly gotten one.

I was asking because I was overheating. Then I found a broken fan clutch, leaking radiator, and a broken water pump

ah, not cool. you just switched to a 6 though, right? if you haven't already, i would switch to the 6 cylinder radiator and if you did and have to replace it, i would go with an all aluminum one for longevity.

Well, here in jersey, it's hella hot in the summer, and frickin cold in the winter, so I put warm climate.
No joke, it's hotter than florida for at least 2 1/2 months out of the summer... air as thick and humid as a wet rag, especially in the concrete jungle of the suburbs and city. I've never had a problem with my m42.
Though in the winter, I don't think we need much of a radiator since it's below 20 for weeks at a time.
Edit: My linkage froze and broke one time, I think it was 8 degrees in the sun that day. Don't shift hard when your hands freeze to the shifter.
