Exclamation Help on cooling options

It seems the v6 doesn't have many cooling options such as a bigger aluminum racing radiator etc. is there a reason for this ? Or do the companies just focus on the v8 model? I've contacted a few custom radiator companies but have got nothing back. I know quite a few people track their v6 this would only help!

I'm pretty sure I sent them an email but didn't get an answer. They do custom options?

There's a place called C&R racing they can fix you up. Not sure about the price you may not like it. Let us know if you find out.

Will do I'll be sending out more emails tomorrow. Any advice on what I should ask for? How many people would be interested in this? I assume the same radiator would fit the LLT as the LFX? Running cooler means more laps! Especially supercharged,turbocharged etc 6ers I think would greatly from this.

They will need dimensions on everything. The thing about custom parts, you either have to do your own engineering or pay someone to do it.

Because I want more cooling capacity. My car is being built for the road course. Cooling is essential, especially when I will add an ipf kit. Beside I know others here can benefit from it as well.
