Question Rothmans Front Mount Radiators!..?

More soon....



Hey Glen,

I started a NEW Thread for You!

I Just thought I'd try and get the ball rolling again and see where You are at with these? Since, as by Your Time Line of 5 to 6 wks+ has come and gone. Hahahaa I know mang. you're busy and have a thousand things on your plate at one time... Well, I know this IS one of those things on your plate, right?!


I'm also asking because WE have another member here, who's making some Killer looking "Front mount rads with Oil cooler" and I'm seriously falling over to them as they really look like Quality pieces!

Peace Jeff

Radiators are really coming along well and the prototype will be done in less than two weeks.

The oil cooler is finished and looks good, some other parts have been revised and the plumbing is also nearly sorted. Went back to make some changes on the radiators which has taken some time but is worth the wait.

Price: Nothing firm yet but still a target well shy of a $1000 for a plug and play kit.

This is going to a really nice kit for previously unheard of prices!

Thanks Glen,

This is actually what is being revised and looked at again, everything will fit with stock bodywork and there will be full lock to lock steering!

Guys I will post up some pictures in the next couple weeks, and later next week I will start tearing my SP1 apart to mount up a prototype set and make sure everything is ok.

We are taking extra time and due diligence to make sure these come out correctly with zero faults.

These radiators are going to draw on previous sets with improvements in a number of areas. Nothing revolutionary but rather evolutionary, and of course at better prices than ever seen before!

That looks awesome! Almost wish I raced!

What about just the oil cooler kit? How much bigger is it?
