hi

if you have to build a car with that kind of propulsor (1994 suzuki gsx 1100g) with a mid engine configuration, what kind of cautions you would have? even if that engine is not the ideal. that is refrigerated with air and oil radiator.

cheers

Phelpsa on here has a gsx1100 in his hill-climb car. Front mounted engine. Big oil rad.

There was a gsx1400 (these are all air cooled) in a striker that you see around occasionally (also front engined).

If I did it then I'd fit a big oil rad, duct the air and fit a massive fan in case of traffic jams.

The only problem with a big fan is that the alternator on the old Suzukis is a bit minimal so you would probably flatten the battery at night time.
