I have a 250 X-flow. I want to find what size( in inches) is the radiator hoses where they fit on the engine.I want to see if a radiator from a Mustang will work with this engine. Thanks for any and all help Ken N.
"The water pump is aluminum, but the bolt pattern is identical to the US version.....The Oz water pump is alloy vs cast iron. It has a steel plate sandwiched between the pump and the impeller. Judging from the amount of silicone I found on both engines, leakage might be a problem. I cannot figure out how to change the inner gasket without pressing the pump apart. I think that if you ever develop a leak, you have to put on a new pump. The US250 pump will interchange and I think I will use it instead.."
If you contact him, he would be able to tell you what radiator he used.
When I did my US250 swap back in the late 70's, I used the stock 6cyl radiator without a problem.
