What to do?

Folks, I've been trying to read up on my Pro-Alloy radiator.

Description
Description


Turns out it's an intercooler off a Caterham Levante , which would explain the Massive pipe diameters.

Could this be used as a water rad with a little adaptation or am I best to swap it out?

Regards Dan.

Any Ideas on what a custom (i.e. very narrow market) value for an intercooler could be.





The less I worked, the more i liked it.

It can be used like that, but it won't work nearly as well as a purpose-designed radiator. The characteristics of water and air are completely different, and they need very different designs.





Thanks

It'll make a great intercooler though
Good excuse to stick a turbo (or 2) on there

I've no idea what it'd be worth. If you're unsure on it's value I assume you either got it as a gift or found it on the street?

Bad dog, I've resisting that Idea for a while, I think an alloy clio rad may take it's place.

Your right, as for value. I thinnk it'll go back on the bay for a 1/3 of the price I payed £50 and see what happens. gotta be a nutter wanting to turbo their 7.

ATB Dan.
