I have tried contacting PRC through Email since i don not have a phone on deployment, has anyone heard from them latley? ive tried contacting them a few times in the past 2 months with no luck.

are there any other sources for a quality radiator for the LS(x) swap?

what email are you using. Their website shows one email (in text) but if you click it, it actually sends to prc_sc@bellsouth.net.

flyin' miata will sell you a radiator too. Can also just buy an ebay one and figure out how to bolt it up.

Don't send him anywhere else! The space gained from the PRC unit cannot be beat. Come on man, your the one who designed it!

Yes, if you use the original fan setup that I had on david's car, it will overheat on the street in stop and go in the summer. You need either a more powerful fan or add a fan shroud. David has gone with 2 ten inch fans with a shroud.
