LADA Radiator owners - Will it fit...?

Diablo · 02-22-2005, 06:30 PM

Hi!

I was wondering about the Lada radiator (seen on some posted pictures here)...
Read somewhere that the dimensions were 24x19x6 cm which wouldn't fit in my Chieftec BigTower case because of the 19cm width. But in one thread here I read that the dimensions were 26*18*6 cm, which would barely fit (I think).
Looks to me like on all the pics I've seen here was one same type of Lada radiator. I'm confused about the other one with the 19cm width. If those were 2 different types of radiator, can you please tell me which Lada type were the 26*18*6 cm radiators from?

Also, how did it fit in your case? Did you have to cut/mod something in your case in order for it to fit?

Oh yeah... the 26cm is without the 2 welded fittings on top. What's the total height with the fittings?

Thanx!!!

When I say "fit" I mean if you can close your left side of your case. (assuming the radiator is placed vertically standing in the front bottom part of the case, where most radiators are)

I've seen one fitted up against the back of a case. I assume that 19 cm is the case width? (about 7 1/2 inches, sounds about right). Tight fit, but a fit.

Not exactly... If it's 19cm wide than it won't fit (in my case). I'd have to cut out a part of the steel case since now I've got "only" 18cm of space. Don't know what width are the cases of people where it fits.

Lianli cases are usually ~200mm wide, perfect for my nova heatercores
