Stephanie's New Radiator
Corky has been at it again....
My radiator started barfing coolant and needed to be replaced. Apparently it has some blockage... So Corky made princess a new radiator, unlike anything anyone else has. I think it is pretty snazzy.

This is not the first of its kind. There's a spec miata crossflow radiator that has been available for quite a while.

Here I thought I was special... Oh well....
Actually, Corky said it was very easy to make. Depending upon how testing goes, we might start producing them. It is unique in that not many people in Miata world-dom use this type of cross flow radiator. It is the same radiator design they use on higher hp cars, so I am told. We also decided to make it, as opposed to getting a Koyo, because it was cheaper.

I want to see a big double pass, with a large oil cooler section built in that takes -10 lines.
However, it seems like my "coolradiator.com" rad is so perfect that I'm scared to replace it. I have it ducted properly and I've never had to turn the fan on at the racetrack, and I have a stock hood. If we could get an oil cooler the size of the rx7-cooler, with the big fittings, and a massively thick radiator, with ducting...you'd get more of my precious ching-dow.

We just did a 55 mm thick radiator. So far, working well!
