I know this had been tried 7+ years ago, I was wondering if since then has anyone done a watercooled conversion and not put the radiator in the front trunk?

Crazy idea time.....
Still have "something" up front yet sized much smaller due to using the coolant lines that go up front as heat sinks.... Not easy or cheap to fabricate and more spots for leaks...then you have to worry about extra resistance/friction for the water pump to deal with. |
