converting from one 343 radiator to another type

right then, i bought a new radiator off ebay for my 343 to replace the manky looking old one. just had a good look today and realised its a different type

the one that came on the car fills through the expansion bottle like all cars do now. this is the rad in question.

but that had the potential to be good (turns out it is...) from the couple of dubious pics that had been posted.

yeah theres very little wrong with it, a piece of rust about 10p size on each a pillar, driver side arch is rotting through at the bottom and the water pump and rad are dodgy. about ...
