looking for ideas for a locost option for the radiator.. ( V8 viento)

I sold a Rover V8 radiator (2 row) on ebay for £112 !!!!

Thought I'd typed the ad wrong and put 'engine' instead of 'radiator'.

I used my original xr4x4 rad headers took them to radiator specialist and they fitted a high perf core so when/if i upgrade to v8 later it is sufficient to cool it, it meaasures 500mm wide and standard height and depth.
it is tight on the width but check out my photo archive ~(front.jpg) and you seee what i mean

I bought the luego rad for the v8 (got tired of searching), and it's a just fit, top of rad nearly touches the underside of the nosecone. Not much space at the sides either. Will post photo in a bit

Measures at 600x400x85 approx
