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?

Positive pressure is king to cooling.
And there is enough room in the front of the 914 if you want to do it, but you loose the head light buckets and the pop up lights. You could also just do the AIR 934 body and just run them in one or both of the side fenders. I so (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif) over that car as a kid. 934 engine in the correct place, full Aluminum roll cage. half a 904 sitting in the background of the VW & Porsche mag article.
