HI all

Let's say that you were gonna make the first dual front radiators, in the front corners... How could you calculate what size rads you'd need?

Not sure why you would do that either...But radiators are all about how many BTU's they can move. This BTU # depends on things such as the area, how many cores, radiator material, and probably several others. A rough guess might be to take the area of the existing radiator as a starting point, as long as the system you are putting together meets or exceeds the original you should be fine.
