Viento Radiator
Does anybody know what the Viento Rad is out of or alternatives to it ? Thinking of finding an upgrade.

I used the Rad from a Volvo 740.
Fits ok and provided too much cooling for my Alfa V6 , had to block some of it off.
I used the Fan from a Citroen BX.
So far so good

Have a chat with your local radiator specialist they may be able to help even if they recore your present rad to make it more efficient. Chances are
they will recognise your rad and be able to help. If you don't have any joy locally there is a very helpful radiator place in Cambridge

Think he might need one for each bank of cylinders and then they would still struggle to cool it

I used my original XR4x headers and got a radiator place to put in a high performance core so if i put i big v8 in ever, it will sufficiently cool it,
As it is with the 2.8 v6 it cools no problem, without the fan ever switchin on
cheers

Rusty - I didn't spot it was a V8!
The link to the web site I gave though would be useful as they have loads of radiators available and show the dimensions etc..
