A couple of the Essex club members expressed interest in the “aerorace-style” radiator ducting for cars with the uprated Polo/Coolex rad (may fit original Polo rad, but would need checking)…. Picture is a gallery image just to give you an idea. I’ve had quotes back to make a batch up by local engineering firm, and was just gauging numbers if I was to progress. Prices are looking around £32 for the four pieces made out of 2mm aluminium (as I asked for small batch of 10 units). If easier, I could bundle together a kit with the bolts and rivets needed as well, but this would probably add a couple of extra quid. So far I’ve had 3 confirmed requests, but looking to see if there’s anyone else that would like one as I have to make it to 10 items to be viable (or the price increases by £10 a set). I’m not doing this as a business venture, just looking for cost recovery! Lead time would be about 2-3 weeks. Opening out to the club to try and boost numbers. Ideally collection from Chelmsford, Essex, but could post if you’re happy to pay for it!

Hi, I have a Seight with the usual arrangement for the radiator, I.e it “floats” in the nose cone. I’ve seen brackets which hold / support the radiator which makes things easier when removing the nose. Does anyone have the designs for such a thing or know where they can be obtained/ bought

(NOW SOLD)ProAlloy Water Radiator From Single Seater ....Made by none other than Carl Nunn! (no, I've no idea either) No longer required - I bought this a few years ago as part of a grand plan to add a water cooling circuit for turbocharger cooling on my other project. It's just a little too big to accommodate where I would like to install it. Which is a real bummer, because it's a lovely thing, very light and nicely made....but would cost more to modify than to start with the right size matrix from the beginning. I bought this from Steve @ SBD Motorsport, it was only used a few times on his one of his hillclimb/sprint cars before he got upgrade-itis [tut] Like I said, never been used while in my possession, so looking to move it on....perfect if you're a weight-weenie working on a competition car! Approximate dimensions: Width = 323mm Height = 350mm Core thickness = 20mm Tank Depth (thickness) = 30mm Mounting centres pitch = 274mm Water inlet/outlet pitch = 302mm, c-c Water inlet/outlet diameter = 25mm Weight = 1330gms as it stands (empty....of course) £100 + shipping

Hi All, Did a bit of work on the seight the other night which necessitated removing the nose cone, I found that the radiator is mounted to the cone and not the chassis, i.e take the cone off and the radiator comes with it. I doubt this is the best solution (although it appears to work fine) due to the weight etc and I think it was done when a past owner fitted a higher spec rad. I'll probably look at mounting it "properly" over the winter but wondered if anyone has any thoughts or pointers? Are there brackets etc available? or is it a fabrication job? I have no detail about the rad other than "high capacity alloy" which isn't a lot to go on I know. Comments and particularly photo's would be much appreciated. Cheers
