here's my project:

I don't have any info. I just tore it apart. As well as most of the vacumn lines were toasted.

That is a cool project. Hopefully you don't bottom out on those coolant lines.

Why did you choose a BMW radiator?

Sorry for my late reply (been ill). I chose the BMW radiator because a friend had it in his garage and it was the biggest I could fit anyway.

Plan is to go single turbo one day when my budget allows for it and getting around 400HP at the crank.

Haven't drag raced it yet but when the engine was in before it dit 0-60mph in under 4 seconds easy (easy on the start due to the stock gearbox that was ready to explode)
And that was without boost on the primary, on highways I felt the secondary coming on at around 100mph and it went like a rocket from there.
