Zetec Radiator
Just a quick question.
Im look for a suitable radiator for my project which i am planning to use a zetec 1.8/2.0l engine.
The haynes roadster book says you can use a clio, polo or micra radiator.
Has anyone used one of these with a zetec?
Or can anyone recommend a radiator?
As long as its fast.... i don't care

I think it's fair to say that the vast majority of people use the Polo radiator with no problems...

If memory serves Nothern Radiators part no VW302 is what you need.

You could probably get away with the approx' 40mm wider Golf rad in your 50mm(IIRC) wider Roadster if you wanted the extra cooling capacity.
Cheers,
