Subject: Pietenpol-List: Lovely radiatorI bought my engine and radiator from a guy who woke up to therealization that the Ford wouldn't safely take him aloft. (he is a BIGguy) The radiator wasn't a Lovely rad., but was a copper- brass radiatorthat weighed 18 lbs. I decided that weight was out of the question so amat least now going with a VW Golf diesel radiator like you see on a lotof 912 Rotax ultra lights. Lowell Frank used one on his Funk B, and itcooled fine. This radiator only weighs 4 lbs. On the negative side I hadto build a housing around it to support and mount it. I still need tofigure out a way to place a header-filler tank. It needs to be slightlyhigher than the highest point in the cooling system. This could end uplooking silly. It is gaining weight, but still way under 18 lbs. I'mgoing to a car swap meet in May where a radiator maker has a booth and Imay have him build me a more traditional Piet style radiator to solvethe header tank problem.________________________________________________________________________________
