Bike radiators?
Is anyone using a bike radiator in their car?
I'm looking for a lighter option than the Escort one that's in there.
Dan.

Is the Escort one steel?
It's pretty hot in Oz isn't it... I'd have thought a bike one would be too small.
Most of us use Volkswagen 1.0lt Polo or Golf (little bit wider) rads.
Cheers,
James

bikes receive a lot of additional air cooling, which the engine won't get in a car.
