Subject:      coolant system swap?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Volks,
I'm budgeting for an engine swap, but I keep thinking about the cooling 
system.  Am I wasting my money by putting in a new engine and not paying 
attention to the goodies up front?  The PO had new plastic long lines put in 
fore and aft, but the radiator is stock -- hence I'm thinking new radiator 
while I'm at it.
For you folks who have done an engine swap: how much time and effort did you 
put into the coolant system?

Best,
d.
