Question.... does an intercooler that big reduce the airflow through the water radiator and increase engine water temperature?

[theduck]

I found there to be very little difference to water temps having moved mine from top mounted to front mounted.

[Snapperpaul]

Interesting that it made little difference, what increase did you see?

How much difference did moving the intercooler make from top to front of radiator to intake air temp?

[speedtripledan]

I run the same rad with a half size intercooler and I struggle to get to temp if I set off without warming the engine up to temp 1st. And there is no cowling or ducting on my rad setup. The coolex rads are a seriously good bit of kit !

Mocked up the boost pipes....pretty straight forward really. Just waiting on a couple of elbows to finish off the radiator connection.

Terry, who would of thought that conversion at the s.yorks meet would have led to this....
