Radiator fitment question
Hi Guys.
Has anyone got pictures of their rad fitted.
I want to get my chassis finished for painting, but not sure where to weld the rad mounting brackets.
I am using a polo rad, I know it depends on the nosecone but unfortunatly mine is still in England.
I offered the rad up to the chassis last night and it seems to me the lower water outlet will foul the lower wishbone mount.
Any help appreciated
Cheers David

Here's a pic of my Polo rad on my old MK.
The top ally brackets are from westfield and i made the bottom ones. Easier than welding!! Hope this helps.

it helps to lay the rad back a bit. This (I am told)also helps with cooling.
my pipe work looks like its touching but there is a 10mm gap.
