If you live near Melbourne, try A&B Automotive Remanufacturing at South Dandenong. I had a much bigger cooler fitted to mine, with all new pipes from the box forward, for less than that. I might have had a discount as they had just rebuilt and fitted the box the week before, but give them a try anyway if you are close.

Urban Panzer - I see from your site that you pulled the air filter box out to get access. Is that an easy thing to do?

If it is a split in the cooler can it be welded? Is it steel or alloy/aluminium?

Thanks again all. Looks like my mechanical ability is about to be stretched again.

a very light alloy/aluminium, as I said before the new one is beefed up and will not fail in the same place.
