Yep. I run in most cars with no problems but in the tiger with the 500hp
motor I needed every bit of efficiency possible so had to switch off even
back to water and antifreeze. It worked sort of ok with the dale radiator
but then I switched to another brand radiator and it just couldn=E2=80=99t =
keep the
temps down. Pretty sure it would be doable with an efficient and lower
power motor if all the other cooling problems were taken care of.
