Viento Radiators

Viento owners can you tell me what radiator you have used for your build?

And where did you fit them, in the nose cone or in the engine bay.

Cheers

Mark

Hi Mark,

Got mine from old Luego, Not sure if it was a special or from a production vehicle.

Fitted in the nose as that was the only place it would fit.

Hi
I used my donor Sierra xr4x4 radiator, took it to local rad repairer who built a high performance cored rad using the original headers.
Mines fitted approx 20mm in front of chassis

A theme here - old Luego rad (four core jobby) in nose cone with not a lot of space - prob over the top for my 6 but the fan runs on for a decent time after a thrash so it's doing the job of cooling when hot and stationary...
