Massive amount of info and thanks i can use much of it all very helpful but what i deed exactly is how the main radiator is mounted to the vehicle from what i can work out i think one mounting point is on the hull wall the other of the engine,but you have supplied some super detail shots for other parts many thanks.

I've already seen your stunning esci t55 model!!
I saw it on "Military modelling" site
http://www.militarymodelling.com/forums/postings.asp?th=34996&p=1
I saved that tread as favourite site and i've began to follow it.
Me too i wanted to improve an old esci kit...but after a while i bought a Tamiya kit
Well, nice to meet you here on armorama and congrats indeed

Sean,
Welcome aboard! This is a great community for info on Russian Tanks.......
The VP T-55 drop in sets are really bad...... it kinda looks the part though
Nice work on the Esci kit.....
