Re: what do you guys do for cooling?

since you wont have AC, you could easily change the radiator so that it mounted in front of the core support, then add some ducting to keep the air from going around the radiator. this would give you some more clearance, but might interfere with the intercooler.

that Civic radiator wont cut it.

youre also going to need an oil cooler to keep temps down. the radiator alone wont be enough.

i have an oil cooler (11.5x7.5") and the griffin radiator, and i got it to maintain a steady 195* coolant temp and 210* oil temp for an entire 20 minute session at 17-20 psi. no cool off laps. the Toyo RA-1s were overheated WAY before the car did.
