Alex Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 Please could I have the dimensions of the stock radiator, or the Fluidyne Radiator. I think the stock one is about 850x500x50mm. Can anyone confirm this please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GavinL Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 my tape measure says 700mm wide and 50 mm deep. Not sure about the height. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted May 11, 2002 Author Share Posted May 11, 2002 500+250 is not 850 Feckin IDIOT!! I wish I'd stop and think before writing. I've just done that IQ test not expecting a good result now!! Yep about 700-750mm wide. I pushed my steel rule to the bottom and hit the floor at 500mm... was that the bottom of the rad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 What IQ test? Or is that part of the test? -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted May 11, 2002 Author Share Posted May 11, 2002 The one on BBC1 TEST THE NATION...I got a score of 110 which is bang on top of the average group. I'm not totally thick! WOW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 Alex, back on topic, are you going ahead with the custom intercooler, hence the rad dimensions question? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted May 12, 2002 Author Share Posted May 12, 2002 I am indeed. I'd forgotten to ask a company which Mr. Wilson recommended to me...so I've sent them a new e-mail with rough dimensions for the IC and the rad solution.. they do Bar and Plate rads as well as IC and so if I can reduce the size of both yet still keep them efficient I'll lose weight, lower the CofG and improve the air flow through the engine bay....for the same cost as 1 unfitted HKS TYPE R intercooler... I'm also going to see if I can get a custom bonnet vent job done which draws hot air out of the engine bay...and feeds cold air at the induction head(s) And do the fueling and the brakes and ....

Demon Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 I've just finished fitting my own Custom made fmic got mine made up by Pace and then made my own mounts and pipe work to meet up with a H.K.S. hard pipe kit . Would have cost over 2k if i had gone for all H.K.S. stuff but this way it cost me about £800 inc the hard pipe kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
