Looking good buddy. It may just be the angle, but that radiator looks a touch small. are you happy you have sufficient volume ?

keep up the good work.

It is small, Richie, you are right! But its also more efficient that the genuine one, so will see. Also electric fan gives a pretty good flow, so so far Im not worried about it - but its still just a theory...
Hopefuly will warm up engine this weekend and test it!

You won't really know until you start driving it buddy, and putting some load onto the engine so to speak.
