hey gang, here we go.
In looking at Maypo's KL V6 conversion on his miata, i was looking at his upper radiator hose. it seems that he just used the miata radiator and made up an extra long upper hose. i didn't like that seeing as how it had one bend in it that was quite awkward.
here is my question. is there any manufacturer located here in the US that currently offers a miata specific aluminum radiator that could probably fab me up something custom. what i'd be looking for is basically a standard miata aluminum radiator, but with the upper outlet on the radiator basically to be on the right side of the radiator instead of the left side, also repositioning the coolant fill spout on the unit while in the process.
having this done would make the piping easier for anyone attempting the v6 conversion on their miata.
i know its asking alot, but in having this made up, i would be looking for something within a reasonable price range, possibly close to what a normal aluminum unit would cost.
any suggestions?
thanks
alex
