Luego Radiators
HI
Just wondered what radiators people are being used in the velocity ??
I plan a duratec engine, just in case it makes a huge difference. I know Luego suggest a mk2 escort but once again they are getting hard to get hold
of new and are a small fortune for the alloy ones.
Any suggestions
Cheers
Stu

Typical he's not got any listed currently, but Andy Bates does the Polo radiator at a good price.

There's also a slightly thicker one from a Golf which you may benefit from if you're going 2.3 duratec and lots of track work.

Hi
Cheers for that, will contact him to see what he can do.
Would a polo or golf bolt to existing brackets or is modification or extra brackets required??

The only other thing was that I had a small hose outlet put into the top corner of it to allow it to bleed fully.....
