clean looking swap man.... but how did you solve the infamous radiator problem?
(meaning where the hell to put the bulky radiator when swapping a massive liquid cooled engine into a tiny quad frame meant for an air cooled lawnmower engine)
The radiator mounting seems to always be the fail point for the slickness of motor swaps like this- ive seen otherwise totally pro looking swaps with the radiator mounted up by the headlight for lack of a better place to put it :/
if someone designed a radiator that could fit inside of the front of the frame and adequately cool a large multicylinder engine, all these swaps would be so much easier!!!
