My buddy runs a Honda radiator (quite small) @ the rear of his buggy mounted inside the rear bumper bar with 2 fans mounted one on each side of the radiator, he is running a golf 1800 motor.

I am running a golf radiator in front and as stated in another post. I am using 32mm stainless piping. I have seen a buggy with a 1400 nissan radiator place in front of the passanger side rear wheel. Although I do not know how effieceint this cooling system was.

Any clue from what model Honda?I need to find a small radiator if I do a WBX conversion on the fasty, PO had run the radiator in front with pipes running under the car, I really don't like that idea...
