Re: No airflow to radiator...........
Are you having cooling problems?
Do you have any pics posted of your setup?

Re: No airflow to radiator...........
I don't recommend putting it in the wing, even a small rollover can destroy a radiator that would have otherwise prob. driven the rail away.
I mount mine in the back, about a 15 degree angle with a sucker fan, protected by the chassis.... Last edited by yoshi; 12-02-2008 at 06:38 PM. |

Re: No airflow to radiator...........
Good point on the rollover. The current mount has the radiator oriented to blow boiling coolant in my direction. At the least it will get mounted to blow elsewhere.
The cooler would be independently mounted from the wing and protected during a rollover. Ideally it would blend in to the wing aesthetically. |

Re: No airflow to radiator...........
How big is that radiator Yoshi? I am wondering how big of rad I should put on my race car. I have one here that is a Civic radiator and one much bigger but will still fit on the car. Does your rad mounted like that keep it cool under constant heavy use?
