Default CXRacing Aluminum Radiator NIB for an NB

99+ radiator $125 shipped, I paid $160 shipped...I was planning to use it but I just found a custom made radiator setup for my V8 swap that moves the radiator down and forward to clear accessories. Mu ha ha!

Just like this one...

Tell me of this...custom radiator of which you speak.

I was planning on moving my Koyo over from the turbo car to the V8 car. You LS1 or 5.0? I can always sell the Koyo.

LS based...I was at the track this weekend and a friend of a friend brought his V8 Miata out. The first thing I noticed when looking under the hood was how much room he had in front of the motor. Then, I noticed that the radiator actually sat up under the core support and several inches further forward than normal.

I was there with another friend who is in the middle of his second LS1 swap so he was pretty interested as well. Evidently he got the information and then proceeded to order himself one and threw in a second for me. Unfortunately now I have to pay for said radiator. I'll post when I get it in...I should be able to get the manufacturer info shortly. It's a custom built job and was about $300 with pusher fan and remote filler neck. Hell of a deal for a custom built radiator.

In for pics, most likely in for $300 rad. I think that I might have more room than the LS guys so might not need it but you never know.

Sorry to jack the FS thread. Back to regularly scheduled programming.

28 spline or 31? If 28, looky here. Long thread but worth the read if you are going to DIY the rear. 8.8 rear end conversion axle measurements - MX-5 Miata Forum

PRC custom makes the "added room" radiators. Google "nathan LS1 Miata" and you will find the radiator in question on his site.

Sorry about the thread jacking. Good luck on the radiator sale!
