Viento Rad
I know this has been up before, and I've done a quick search, but didn't find allot, but does anyone know the car the radiator comes from
used in the viento, it's quite a deep one if I remember rightly.
Regards
Darren

I got mine from luego. However I would look at a Land Rover 200Tdi Diesel Rad. The TDi rad has a separate intercooler to one side which makes it a
very narrow Rad (Left to Right) Its about the same thickness as The Luego one. Dont know the other measurement, or if it will fit at all.
The Landy one also has an Oil Cooler in it as well. (Handy) Unfortunately its not cheap (either of them) So I went for the Luego one which I know
fitted.
Edit:
I suppose it really depends on what engine you are fitting as to how much cooling capacity you need

Hi
I used my donor sierra XR4x4 rad, took it to local radiator specialist and got them to use the same plastics headers and put a high performance core
in it, so that it will be capable of cooling a V8 if i do go down that road in the future.
cheers

Do you mean the TDi Rad which is narrower (left to right)
The Turbo Diesel (No Intercooler) is a Full landy width Rad.
PS Happy to be shot down, but have the intercooled version rad in my 110 and the old non intercooled rad on the shelf in the garage.
