The in/out on the RX-8 may be 1.25 inch. That is what mine are on
the plane.

inlet/oulet dimensions
If there is a consensus
in this field I haven't heard it yet : )
I bought my rad with the standard in & out ports (1.25 & 1.5) for the
sake of being cheap. b Griffen gets about $100 for each change I think. I
made adapters to make both 1" . That's plenty in this application,
even for a 20B. This is on the RV-8.
The RV-4 is using two cores with 5/8" ins & 3/4" outs (in
parallel).

From what I read, the radiator inlet diameter is 1.5 inches and
outlet is 1.75 inches.
Is this the consensus?
