Default X308 radiators

Hi,

I'm wondering if there are any differences between supercharged and normally aspirated X308?

The information I've found on the Internet is contradictory.

I need a replacement radiator for my 2001 XJR and don't fancy paying circa £500 for one from Jaguar.

There don't seem to be any pattern parts available, so I'm looking for a secondhand, but want to be sure what to buy.

There appears to be differences between AJ26 & AJ27 engined cars.

I would appreciate anyone's input.

Would it not be cheaper to get it recored rather than replace, as even the non supercharged version is £400 ish from jaguar classic

Apparently the plastic fittings are liable to break, which makes recoring it difficult.

I would be interested if anyone has successfully done this.
