I think the Mac 1 is pretty similar to the MK, in which case most people seem to use the VW polo radiator. VOLKSWAGEN POLO

If you want to retain the same fittings and pipe routes post up a picture and im sure it will be identified/confirmed straight away.
If you dont mind tweaking things then as mentioned the Polo rad is a good fit for most 7s.

Originally had a Micro rad in mine but cooling was not great.
I have since switched to a Polo radiator with a Header Tank and things seem to run a lot cooler.

If its a bec and the rad is curved then it may be the original bike one. Quite a few bec builders do this.
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!
