It's actually a scirocco radiator VW radiator, its really damn small. I bought a electric fan setup for it, but isn't necessary. I have problems getting it up to temp if I don't lean out the alky mix on warm up. Next season I'll switch to warming up on race gas instead of alky, less milking of the oil. I only run it about two weekends or around 2-3 miles.
