does anyone have a alloy radiator that i could fit to my locost i currently have a ford escort rad and its like 25mm thick ish or 19mm i dont really know, i doubt it will handle the heat my 2.0L zetec throws out.

anyone give me any advice or sell me a rad does anyone run the standard radiator with a zetec engine?

Normal Polo Rad would be fine.

okay, do you know the dimensions of the polo radiator? thanks

Search the mighty Ebay and suppliers often have the dimensions of the product they are selling

Either the smaller polo radiator or the small Honda civic radiator. The honda one you can get a alloy racing one for about £75 on eBay. The Honda one is taller and slim where the polo one is wide and short. Both very similar dimensions.

thanks

would one like this be appropriate? ITS 56MM THICK, THATS ALMOST AS THICK AS ME!!!

Yeah that's the one. Just be aware it's fairly tall so check it'll fit inside your nosecone first

be aware that only a specific polo radiator is able to do the job!!

there are different ones exsiting...even they look same on 1st view, they arent the same.

book locost is fitted with escort-style radiator....a thicker (3 core) one should do the job for your zetec.
