Default small remote mount radiators

I am interested in possibly doing some autocross/road racing with the bug, still might be a pipedream but who knows.

Long story short, in hot weather when beating on it and making boost the temp goes up and up, was around 210 after a stint on the highway today and climbing before I slowed down.

The setup does have a 160 TS, after under normal driving conditions runs fine.

My thought was to plumb in a pair of small remote mount radiators in front of each front tire behind the headlights, make some nice louvers in the fenders under the headlights and whatnot.

SO, My question is where would I find some small (thinking like shoebox sized) radiators with rather large inlets/outlets 1.5" maybe?

Or is there somewhere I could buy radiator cores and make my own radiators buy welding some end caps on them?

heres a pic of what I am working with
