I recently purchased a new radiator for my B Farmall. Just put it on today and found that the overflow tube which comes out of the neck, is in the way of the grill. The grill is suppose to slip right over the neck and pretty much lays on top of the radiator.

I noticed on the old radiator the overflow tube comes out of the top tank on the backside towards the fan. If I cut the overflow tube off the neck, can I braze that hole? Pretty sure this is a brass tank. Also, can I drill a new hole at the top of the tank and braze the overflow tube there like the original tank? Anyone run into this situation before? How did it work out?

Thanks

You wouldn't want to braze it. Brazing will be too hot and you could melt the solder joints.
You could maybe solder it though. You might want to look into having a radiator shop do it if you are unsure of your soldering skills.

Why dont you just use a file and make a nice little slot for the grille to clear the overflow tube. I have some grilles that have the slot for the tube.

Yes you have the wrong radiator. I dont know if you can even get the old style, new that is. The later tractors,Super A, have a raised space right behind the radiator cap for the over flow tube. You might modify the grill to allow room for the overflow tube. The presure radiator radiator will raise the boiling point.

I thinken you got the wrong rad. the B is a thermo-siphon cooling system. you have a rad, for a super A or C pressure cooling system [they have a water pump] two differnt rad.

Two different radiators for thermosiphon,and the radiator on the Super A1/Super C's with C123's, maybe earlier, I don't know, YES. But I have a C and a Super A with C113's plus thermosiphon and pressurized factory radiators, there was a serial break, don't remember what it is. When the water pump was an option it did not require a pressurized radiator, and thermosiphon did not require that the radiator be non-pressurized.
