  1. A lot of Imported cars did not have big enough radiator capacity for competition or really hot days  (Australian Conditions)and if the area couldn't be increased they had to be thicker and I used fork Lift ones. The LADA Niva had a sturdy radiator. You need that on outback roads so they don't crack on the sidestraps. Also rubber Mounted adequately. None of this is rocket science. Where there was A V8 VERSION or one for the Automatic trans just use that. Oil coolers can go under the base of the spin  on  oil filter. No pipes at all.   Nev

  2. It's certain that the speed of the Plane would affect the radiator you use. Also the Power output of the engine.. and the ambient air temp where you might operate.  Shutters or Cowl Gills anybody?  Heat and drag control.  A hotter running motor is more efficient in a technical sense. Then there's the Quicker warm up, and the under cowl temps after landing. Nev
