Radiator Part 1

The Air Flow meter once mounted on the throttle body with a 90 degree bend was coming into contact with the top of the radiator. I had wanted to get the radiator tilting forward so I could vent it out of the top of the nosecone to reduce engine bay temperature.



So I stripped the front end out to have a fresh start at the radiator set up. The original one had always been a compromise of Robin Hood supplied parts.

So this is before (less the cooling fan that was in front)


And this is stripped out.....


So I made up a cardboard template of a VW Polo radiator and used it to see if it would fit.
