There was a drawing of a Triumph Super Seven engine in the last issue
of Club Triumph's magazine which illustrated this point. The top of
the radiator is much higher than the top of the engine, and the
connecting pipes are very large to ensure free circulation. The
article mentions the car was introduced in 1927 (for those people as
familiar with this car as I am!).
