Changing Radiator
I want to chage radiator on my fury (because the one on is too big and sat at an angle). Would a polo radiator from a 1.1l be ok for a 1.8 zetec? or
should i look for one from a i.6-1.8 polo?
Thanks
Rick

The smallest polo rad works well supposed to cool up to 200bhp.I have one on my 1.8 zetec and it copes easily.

I'd go (and did) for the 1.3 Polo rad. Slightly bigger and fits the Fury rad mount direct; 1.1 needs spacers.
1.1 polo rad 380x322
1.3 polo rad 430x322
SerckMarston part No's 2719517 (1.1) and 2719819 (1.3)

I have a 200+ bhp Zetec in my VortX & a 1.1 Polo rad keeps it cool even on trackdays. Be sure to get the fine cored rad not the open honeycomb
type, they also work better tilted back at an angle.
