Do the factory fitted radiators have any id tag on them? If they did what were the letters and numbers please.

This is the radiator in my late 1970 MK II S with the Newcell plate on the side of the header tank. The part number is AYA2077. I'm very confident your 1971 S would be the same.

The last of the round-nose parts books shows different parts for different models of Mini. The Cooper S is listed as AYA2077.

Someone, I think on this forum, had the brass plate remade as theirs was lost (pic below). Maybe do a search or perhaps the member sees this and will comment.

Hey Doug, I have heard the Cooper S had more fins per inch than normal ones. But I don't ever remember seeing any difference between radiators (apart from the tanks themselves)'

What do you know about what makes them difference to what was fitted to the mini K for example.
