Dear David, Kevin and Peter,
I can't thank you guys enough for all your advice. I'll definitely try to go with the puller unit David suggested and leave the old radiator in the car for now.
May I ask if your cars are also equipped with a skid plate? As you can see on the picture the plate on mine looks to somewhat belong there but it really encloses the lower section of the radiator completely.
Since you've shared your experiences I really start to understand the tricky airflow situation at the front of the car which I never considered as the grille looks so chunky.
I'd be very glad if you guys allow me to rely on your experience again, when the engine is finally getting back in the car and all theory will need to be put to practice.
Regards
Justin
