Do I need to swap radiators as well ? I plan on swapping the water outlet/ front motor mounts. I am putting the rebuilt engine for my 1936 phaeton into the 1935.

Come check out my water outlets. As you thought they are severely corroded I’m going to speak with some people about building them up thanks for the tip By the way is there a way to display more than one photo in the image attachment section

Thanks for your feedback, I was able to see the parts on line and the visual cleared it up. I appreciate everyone’s feedback. It is such a value for me to be part of the club!!!! By the way, I am now the proud owner of a 35 and 36 Phaeton

Lobo, With respect, reading between the lines above, it seems that it is not fully understood that the water inlets and motor mounts are one and the same component, one for each side at the bottom front of the cylinder block. They are not separate components and have nothing to do with the water pumps in the heads (where the circulating coolant exits the heads and cylinder block) except that the inlet opening is part of the cooling system and where the cooler water re-enters the cylinder block after circulating through the radiator.

No problem here. Just use the '36 engine as planned and pull off the '36 engine mount/water mounts and put on your '35 units . Everything will bolt up without a problem. The only potential problem are the outlets themselves. Too often they are badly pitted or eroded on the ends from decades of use and tend to leak. At this point you will need to do some build up work such as brazing . I doubt if you will find any NOS units floating around. They were gone years ago and no one that I am aware of is reproducing them. Tom

Tom, what do I need to do with motor mount? Do I use the one on the 36 frame and put it on the 35? As far as water outlets do I need new parts? Sorry for my ignorance?

As mentioned the '35 and '36 mounts are slightly different due to the longer radiator on the '36. The '35 outlet is straight . The '36 outlet bends down. Tom
