What's yer definition of effective?
And for how long???
Radiators depend on airflow to cool and midship engine bays are not known for effective airflow.
Some have tried it, and it may work. Let us know.
My thoughts exactly, although, obviously the stock motor is air cooled, so it is designed for more air flow than your average mid-engined car (MR2, X1/9, Fiero, etc.). I live in Minnesota, so obviously my cooling system isn't tortured as much as other areas....but I still don't want to have to pull over and let it cool off, ever.
I dunno, I don't actually own a 914 (yet, hopefully), so I can only speculate from pictures I've seen, and the couple minutes I've spent under my uncle's 914. which is why I'm here. My #1 concern with my planned project is hacking up the front of the car to put in a radiator, and then burping the system, etc.
Number6, Thanks a ton for the links, I'll do some reading.
