My corsa Gsi rad has sprung a leak so Im gonna have to order a new one, are the diesel ones any better at keeping the engine cool? Cant say I really had any overheating problems before but while I'm ordering one I might as well go for the most effective one I can. Are the pipes in the same places on the diesel?

Just been looking at EPC and it looks as if the diesel ones have different inlet and outlet pipes so it might not be worth the hassle. Had a look in the scrap yard to see what they were like and there was only 1 corsa diesel and it didn't have a rad 
Looks like the air con rad has a different top hose angle as well so i think its gonna have to be a another gSi one

standard sport rad will do the job, deisel rad has a thicker core and different places for piping it in
