Radiator suggestions? (pics inside)

[curtis]

If you clock the compressor back another 15 degrees and add a piece of IC pipe going front to rear you could use a stock passat or corrado fan assembly. The passat motor is two speed and long but the corrado motor is slim I have a VW sirocco radiator and a passat fan set-up and they worked well.

click me and yes its belt driven I did a write up on the install years ago. I put the fan switch and a -4AN fitting on an aluminum hardpipe as a bottom radiator hose. I only used the high speed side of the motor but it is two speed if you wanted to wire it as such.


Some audi's and some Benz fan units may work as well...

Nice looking radiator! If only I could do w/o AC in the car though...

rad looks good.Is that a 1g dsm fmic your using?



Yes its a 1G fmic! Fits really good!

Quoting boostin4door:
Looks good!!^ With that rad. you should be able to run a 12" puller fan w/no problem.
I'm also running a Bolt on BEP HX35{w/no A/C} w/a full size alum rad., 12" fan & 4" Dejon Turbo inlet pipe[I did a weld on alum. 90 elbow for the turbo to eliminate the slilicone elbow & t-bolt to free up some space down low] It is tight but, it fits & works.



I have only 1 12inch puller on it right now, we will see how it works out! Car is getting close to being finished, the 90degree coupler actually fits rather well!

My friend was telling me about that fan, I will look to switch to it, if the 12inch slim fan doesnt do the job.


Guys I am sorry I havent been updating this thread, but the radiator is all in, I found out that the talon radiator hoses fit rather well as far as having pretty close bends. However you guys running these radiators how are you reducing the diameter of the radiator hoses that go onto the radiator itself? Are you just tightening the sh*t out of the clamps and it reduces it down enough or what?

Thanks for all the help!
