When i sit it so that the bottom outlet is inside the frame, its about 7 inches high?
also, what have you done about the third outlet on the rad as it only has 2 but as far as i no i need 3? i was thinkin of making an outlet using an old fan thermostat thats in the rad?
Many thanks for your help,
Darryl.

My Rad is about 2 to 3 inches forward of the front frame , at a slight angle which seems to more or less follow the lean back angle of the front frame, the top of the rad is also about 3 inches above the top of the front frame.

My Rad has the usual inlet / outlet points, a thermostat switch which i,ve blanked off ( i,m using an aftermarket fan/thermostat switch fitted elsewhere in the system) & also has a small overflow outlet at the top that i,ve connected to the expansion tank.

If you wish I could take a photo tomorrow if it would help ?

cheers
