I'm not sure Rudy, but I think RAF contracted those rads. I read some years back about a radiator for a certain model of VW would fit the RAF. I checked on it, to no avail, when I was having a problem with my rad.
I took my RAF rad to a good repair shop and they fixed it, after two tries.
What problem are you having?
Cheers :)

Rudy, Downunder we use Nissan pulsar radiators which have an alloy core and plastic tanks. Probably half the weight of the Raf radiator and 300% more efficient. I will try and take a pic today.

Harry,
No problems, but I may bring mine to a radiator shop to have it cleaned out. Its been 6 years & the temp is holding about 200.
I posted this for my friend has an EJ22 that he may mount on a gyro he is building.
Paul,
Thanks a picture would be great.
I heard that a VW Rabbit radiator is the one used, but not sure. I wish I wrote the manufacturers name & model number off the box my radiator came in. It was new in the box.

My RAF Rad was built by KRS motors in canada. Their phone # is 306-463-2480. Rudy this is a custom made unit I think.
Call me if you need anything else.

Oops, I forgot. The Raf radiator weighs a little over 13 lbs and the Pulsar a little under 9 lbs.
