I am looking to have a custom alloy radiator built for my monaro and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations.

I can supply my original radiator as a mock up piece for hose outlet, brackets etc.

The standard one is prone to cracking on the plastic endtanks and alloy ones from the states or aus cost a fortune due to shipping and tax.

Ideally i would also like a built in oil and power steering cooler if possible.

Thankyou

Hi,
I would suggest Allisport but they aren't exactly Midlands as they have moved to the Forest of Dean. Be sure to tie them to a delivery date,PM me if you want to know why.

I would try Leicester Radiators. Not sure if they do bespoke builds anymore but their parent company PMA designed the cooling system for the Focus RS and all the current Lotus line up.

Not sure if you saw my reply on the Monaro forum but if you go down the route of having one made and need an old rad as a template I still have mine if you want to use it.

thankyou for the offer but mine is an 04 and i believe that yours is an 05 so the rad is different
