    FInishing up a chassis and we're running out of room up front. Debating whether to run a radiator or just circulate water in the block/heads?

    The block isnt filled, its blown alky big block.

    I do have a VERY small 4 wheeler radiator that might fit somewhere.

    with the MSD mag and the tri drive blower acc. etc, there isnt allot of room left.

    radiator

    we ran a B&M trans cooler with a remote pump on a injected alky, big block in a dracgser mounted in the back. I ran it on the fat side, and towed it to the line, but never had a heating problem. The block was filled to the water pump holes, and you had to turn it off and on in intervals to help cool it. I guess you could mount a small fan over it if you wanted. Don

    I ran an all alum. 632 with big chiefs in a front engined dragster with a Derail, I think thats right, oil cooler for a radiator. Got it from summit for less than 200.00, get the two pass unit, it comes with #8 male ends already on unit. I drove the car back and forth to the lanes and never got it above 185 deg. even in S.C. during the 105 deg. summer heat. It's less than 12in. square andappox. 4in. thick.
