Yes George, I followed your 3.1 build thread with much interest, and thanks again for your input.

Now that I have full engine control (I'm having a ball with Vic's kit, best money I have spent in this car so far), the cooling capacity is the next thing I must focus on before going wild with the boost.

Thom,

You are in France? I'm a Rotarian, and my family had a Rotary exchange student, Melodie Galvaz, live with us for a year a few years ago. Her entire family came out to visit her for about 2 weeks. They are from Rambas, France in the Lorraine Province. Her father, Anthony, is a driving instructor.

I'll be visiting them next summer with my family during our trip to Europe. We'll spend a few days in France.

Your car must be a blast. Maybe I'll get to see it next summer?

Regards,

George

Have some heating issues and thinking about upgrading. Any new opinions on the Ron Davis Vs Wizard radiator?

I think my issue may be the radiator or the Mocal oil cooler mounted in front of the ac condensor.

Thanks
Steve

Holy old thread resurrection. I installed a lindsey 3 inch aluminum radiator this spring.It's not even on their site.Phone and ask for it.It only cost a bit more and all summer long at de weekends my gauge did not move at all!Nice to know I have super cooling protection.Pretty much the most important thing next to oil for longevity for my car I believe.

I have the summit circle track radiator. It's a double row, and the internal tubes are 1.5 inches. It takes a custom install, but it keeps the car super cool.

Search rennlist for Griffin Radiator. You can make your own decision on that.
