rad size

[owey]

hi, probably a dumb question, but I'll ask anyway.....

would a 2 core production radiator (Ford Transit, UK) measuring 360mm x 600mm approx, mounted horizantly, with draw through electric fans, be sufficiant to cool a V8, in a similair set-up to a GT?

Any ideas?

Many thanks

Owey,

I calculate that you have approx. 330.4 in² of radiator. My aluminum radiator (excluding the side tanks) is appox. 288 in² with 2 - 1.5" cores and it does just fine with two 10" fans.
