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?

Aren't there examples of mid-engined sports/supercars with radiators behind the driver?
It could be done, but at the cost of some significant body mods and/or big ass fans and ducting. Funny this topic has been discussed since the 70s. Have we seen a proven successful example yet in a 914? |
