I am going to be installing a Jetta MK5 radiator and intercooler combo in my ALH Ranger on the long weekend. The MK5 has the input of the radiator on the passenger side of the vehicle. I have seen some ALH conversions that have the main radiator output flange exiting on the manifold side of the engine. How exactly is this accomplished - is it simply flip the flange 180 degrees? What do you do about the cab heater and oil cooler outputs? Thanks in advance and photos would be great!

hey David, i think they are building custom water outlet flanges, or you could weld to an existing flange
The flange on the side of the ALH cylinder head is plastic.
