Damn Radiator...

Post by RobThePyro »

Does anyone know what size and type of threads they use on the swiftech radiators for the mounting points? I bought 4mm diam alen cap machine screws and they are ever so slightly to big for the holes... i then bought a 4mm Tap but alas.. i cant tap the rad because the fins are to close to the holes if you know what i mean....

Thanks guys.
