Default Early 944 N/A Radiator to 951 Turbo Radiator

Hey guys, i've read that with minor modifications to the lower radiator bracket, you can fit a 951 turbo radiator into a early model 944. I'm curious if anybody knows that this is the truth, and if I would require any special hoses to make everything fit perfect. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance,

-Derek

I will be doing the same to my track rat this winter (924S with 986 engine). I have the 951 radiator in the garage and did do a test fit to determine what will need to be modified on the lower bracket. I'm sorry to say that I cannot help too much on the hoses as many of mine have already been changed out to work with the 968 engine (most are either flex hose or I cut an spliced hoses to make it work). I'm pretty sure that you will need to change the lower radiator hose to the later model as the early is too short.
