I believe "Mat" is actually MichiganMat on 914World. He is building a similar 914 with a build thread here. Very cool article and car. Love the way they did the radiators.

Thanks man. Yeah, the radiators were loads of work and there was no guarantee that we would have enough cooling capacity to keep the car cool. We took an aftermarket radiator for a Mini and sectioned it into 3 pieces: 2 for the fenders, 1 for the nose. I had hoped that the rads in the fenders would be enough but turned out we needed the front-mounted rad too. The goal was to not cut the tub in any way, and we accomplished that, but at the cost of 10s of hours of effort. Everything in the nose of the car fits with like 1" or less of room, its all stuffed in there so tight that its hard to believe it would work at all. We got lucky. Mike daily drives it around LA now and the temps are always in spec, that might change if he ever puts it on a race track, who knows. If that happens, well, back to the drawing board, we'll figure something out.
