90 civic dx Radiator Question
Hi, I'm new to the forums, and I have a quick question , I have a 1990 Civic DX hatchback, and at the moment there is no radiator in it right now, But in the shop there is a 1991 Acura Integra Radiator, heres my question, will the Radiator from the integra fit into my civic with no problems and no welding/cutting? Thanks!

Do you need a half rad or full size? I'm almost sure it will not fit because a) mounting is different. Yours mounts from both corners where as the Integra rad has a bracket just off center. B) Integra rad is shorter in height.
If you can make it stable and prevent it from moving then you can use it, because all you need to do for it to work properly is to hook up the top/bottom hoses and on both rads the necks are located on the same side and also connect the overflow tank. Lastly I'm not 100% on the bottom rubber doughnuts whether they are spaced apart the same width.
I do happened to have a half rad from EG that I was gonna toss out. If you want it ill let you have it for 5$. It has a fan on it.
Otherwise you can try looking around in scrap yards or just buy brand new, at part source it shouldn't be any more than 300$ [that's what my DA full size rad coated me]
