582 to 912 conversion

[egp8111 7]

I'm in the process replacing a 582 head with a 912ul and have a couple of questions hopefully someone can answer. Can I use the old 582 radiator ? The KFIII builders manual list the same part number in the part list for both the 582 and 912 so I'm hoping it's the same.($) Also does anyone know if the Grand Rapids EIS 2000 that was working on the 582 can be converted to work with the 912 ? I'd ask the folks at G R but they are closed this week.

thanks,

If it is the same part number your OK, as far as I can tell rotax made only two styles of radiators. As far as the EIS I don't have a clue I have steam gauges

You can use the same radiator and the Grand Rapids 2000 can be converted to the 4 stroke, I called them awhile back as I have a 582 that is going in my Skyraider.I was contemplating on switching to a 4 stroke but it was alittle out of my price range.I think I will give my 582 a chance as I could do several rebuilds for the price of a 912.I cant remember the price to convert your EIS over but it wasnt much.Good Luck Randy

Thanks everyone for the information. FYI Grand Rapids will convert you 2 stroke EIS to a 4 stroke model for $80.
