Radiator Placement
Ok, i am in the middle of a 13B NA 6port swap into the bug, and i am wondering where is a good place to mount the radiator. I dont really want to mount it to the front of the car cause i dont want to have to run ten feet of lines and stress out the waterpump and so on. I saw someone who cut out the luggage area behind the rear seat and flipped it over and put the radiator in there. Just wondering if anyone here has done that. Thats the one i was leaning towards. Because the rotary is so small, i will be able to have it partially in the line of air from the deck lid spacer. This car is mostly used for autocrossing so, driving 20-30 minutes out there, sometimes more and then driving 1.30 hard, driving home. Doesnt spend much time in traffic, but if i happen to stop for a minute, i dont want it to over heat at a stoplight. Sorry for turning this into a novel, but im sure yall understand, this is a big change and its my baby this is happening to, so i have alot to say about the subject. Thanks for any opinions/help.
