[W126 Coupe] MBCOUPES Digest, Vol 60, Issue 20 Radiator source

Try to find an auto parts house that deals with World Pac . In my case it
was CarQuest in Houston TX. My need was for a 560 SEC Behr radiator. The
dealer wanted about $450 I got it through CarQuest for $289. I buy lots of
parts from this parts house so I get a pretty good deal but it's probably
not more that 20% off so I suspect that your local guy that deals with World
Pac can get you a good price.
I don't know if a 560 SEC rad will fit but the part # on the box is DC
S-KL.(W126) 2108918 and below the SKU is # 8MK376 712-521.
As it turns out my slight overheating problem was more the clutch fan so
this radiator I pulled out was only running about 5 degrees hotter than the
new one. If you live in a cooler climate and can run 95 - 100 degrees in 100
degree weather you can buy mine. In 85 degree ambient I was running about
90-95 degrees I was going to put it on e bay anyway.
My e mail is dlg1936 at gmail.com. Let me know.
