I'm just curious if you guys have any data you can share on the effect of using your radiator? Seems like it should be able to exchange a ton more heat, being ~3x as thick as stock. Do you have a whitepaper or something else you could share?

I plan on tracking in the future, and couldn't imagine doing so without an upgraded cooling system. It doesn't seem wise to use a cooling system designed for 263/280 @ the crank on a car that'll be making ~500/400 @ the wheels (when I do the build).

Also, any folks have practical experience/data using this? Thx!
 
I don't have a good back to back analysis to share. The rads sold so slow we have actually discontinued them. We have a few with some cosmetic blemishes but once those are sold they are gone.

Dang, that stinks. You guys and the Koyos are the only ones I know of.

You have to call Ron Davis directly, they still make MS6 radiators, just do not list them on their webpage, I suspect this is the case with the MS3 too.

Recommend them over the Koyo units? If so, care to elaborate??

Most guys don't track using their most aggressive tunes.

I've heard that, too. It really all depends on the course. If you're doing auto-x, there's often no need. If you were on Laguna Seca or another longer racetrack, the extra power makes sense for the straights. I'm curious how long the straights are at Cresson, too.

How's it going by the the way, man? Get the engine sorted out?

It's been a struggle.

1st world problems.

It'll probably be built by the end of the year. Looking at Speedperformance's stage 1 with 4032 pistons. I'd be content with a good stock motor but the ones I've found are not much cheaper than one with upgraded internals.

Great choice. I'm going to use those 4032s too, when I eventually build. Hope things smooth out for ya.
