Anybody that owns a big Healey knows that cooling is an issue. This radiator teamed with a 180 degree stat keeps the engine running between 185 and 195 degrees even in humid weather. It really is a huge difference over the stock radiator. Well done Wizard.

When I opened the package to check for all parts ordered I could not find the drain plug. They sent a new plug via priority mail ASAP. Only when I was installing the radiator did I find a drain plug taped up inside the bottom hose connection. Good safe hiding place for shipping, sorry I didn’t look there. Great customer service! Thank You!

Wow--Impressive product--fits my 1964 Healey BJ8 perfectly. I put a 165 Degree thermostat in, and have been driving in 50-60 degree weather, and haven't seen the eng. temp above 170, regardless of type of driving. Highly recommended.

I recently installed the Wizard Cooling radiator on my 1967 BJ8. It is working great and appears to have solved my overheating problems at stop lights and in slow traffic. Because it is thicker it was difficult to install. I had to shorten the lower hose fitting by a 1/4" in order to squeeze it in and getting a screwdriver on the lower hosed clamp was tricky but now that it is in is looks great and works even better. Next action is to install an aluminum overflow tank.
RESPONSE: Thank you far the feedback Larry! We have revised the length of the lower hose connection so future customers will not need to trim the length of the lower hose connection. Thank you!

Now my Austin Healey 3000 runs at 190 deq. when the temperature is above 85 deg. Should have made this upgrade years ago.
Excellent product!!

After damaging my original radiator I decided to install the Wizard radiator which is very popular with the Healey community. Right out of the box I dropped the radiator into position and started to install my original SAE bolts. Since they did't fit, I called Wizard and spoke with Tech Rep Scott who confirmed that metric M8 X 1.25 nuts had been used due to the unavailability of the original SAE nuts. A quick trip to Lowe's had me 6 of the metric bolts. 5 of the 6 bolts went in easily but the 6 bolt required me to loosen the mounting bracket allowing the completion of the job. Only a few miles on the Wizard radiator but the results look good for handling the heat here in Florida. A well made and good looking product.

The radiator was made very nicely. Definitely a quality product. Installation was very straight forward. the only thing was the bolt holes were tapped in metric threads so I had to go and purchase metric bolts. Not a problem, but would been nice to have a note saying that is what they were.

I built my Healey to drive and i couldn't go anywhere if it were over 85 degrees outside.
It would get above 195 if i got stuck at a stoplight.
Now it actually runs too cool. I may need to get a 180 thermostat as it doesn't go above 160

Great craftmanship with the welding. Fit just like it was made for my car. Slight misalignment problem with an upper mount but was easily fixed. Dresses up the engine compartment for sure. I am anxious to try it on the road. I have a 1959 AH 100-6

I have owned this car almost 50 years. This is an excellent product. It fit right on to existing mounts. The craftsmanship shows in the finish. Engine cooling much improved. Maintained 175 degree engine on a 90 degree day. Back road and at high speed.
Great price. Do I dare say. “ I’m a fan. “
