The cooling
pack incorporates the radiator a
ssembly with integral transmission oil cool er (located in the radiator outlet tank),
an air conditioning condenser, and the cooling fans and cowl assembly.
The cooling pack on supercharged vehicles is the same as described above, but with the addition of a charge air cooler
coolant radiator located in front of the condenser.
Radiator Mounti

T
he radiator is mounted on four rubber mounts, one on each
end of the upper and lower horizontal face. The two lower
mountings are supported on two isolated brackets mounted on the body; the lower cradle assembly has subsequently been
deleted.
A closing panel made from polypropylene, which retains the radiat or assembly, fits over the top of the radiator and is bolted
to the vehicle top panel.
