Cooling

The rigours of lap after lap of track days have a significant effect on the car's fluids and the last thing we wanted was overheating so in went a new higher capacity alloy radiator.
An alloy fill panel was fitted to direct incoming air through the radiator and foam fill strips were used extensively to seal the radiator chamber for the same purpose.
Next a cooler was fitted to the power steering fluid which will boil rapidly after a few laps of a race track.
Lastly, an oil cooler and remote mount oil filter were plumbed in to keep the engine's oil supply nice and cool.
