Velocity Radiator

Anyone know what radiator Luego use on the Velocity?

I thought it was a Escort Mk II so purchased a new RadTec alloy replacement when my rad split.

The new rad arrived today and its too tall. The mounting brackets are also the wrong way round.

Was the Luego rad a modified item?

This could be an expensive mistake

Does the Polo Rad have an expansion pipe at the top?

The online pictures seem to suggest that it doesn't.

Yes, 8mm i think. I used the rad upside down so this picture shows it at the bottom but it is there!

Great, thanks for the quick replies guys - Got one on order.

Hopefully the VW302 has enough cooling power for a 20v 4AGE.

RadTec have also told me they'll take the other one back and build me a new custom rad to fit. Awesome customer service!!!

I get to choose which one is best and will look to pass the other on to a new home or keep as a spare.
