Yeah, I have never heard of such a problem either... but,
Owain really uses his Tiger.. fast race/rallyes... Tigers are pretty
flexible.. and even I removed the bottom piece
of the core support (that blocks the radiator) that might have made it
stronger... OWAIN, did you do that too?

<div>what are you guys doing to mount your alumin(i)um
radiators? i had changed my stock rad for an ali version
from Dale a few years back. not because i needed better
cooling but mainly because i was tired of soldering the
rad up all over the place and thought it must be all
flexed and stressed out. the first time i put any miles
on the car recently, the new rad sprung a leak which i
assume is from having it bolted solid to the front panel
which is flexing under torque and cornering. since i
can't really repair it, I bought a new one from the UK but
want to mount it on something which absorbs the flex and
