My Koyo radiator bit it
So my Koyo radiator bit it. I came back from the track and I noticed she's leaking. I need to take it out of the car and see what's going on but I think the crappy fan mounting I had going finally did it in.
The Koyo is way too wide, I can barely fit any fans in there let alone a shroud. The only fan I can fit is a small slimline on the trans side with some **** solution for mounting. Where the header is there is absolutely no room at all.
Finding radiator dimensions is challenging at best so I'm stuck now wondering what I should do. Should I buy another Koyo and attempt to find a better way to mount my fan? Should I just go stock and have plenty of room for fans? Or are there other options that offer more performance but are thinner than the Koyo? I am worried about the stock radiators ability to cool off my engine especially on a road course which makes me even more confused.
If anyone has expirence or width numbers with different radiators that they can share with me it would be much appreciated.
Thanks - John

this is what happens when you put big engines in little cars 
probably go with a smaller radiator. radiator shops often have dimensions on hand, or direct connections with suppliers.
