James, sorry for the delay in replying, I've been away for the W/E.
Glad to hear the old girl is still going well. It used to understeer like mad until I fitted new Spax dampers with adjustable platforms & set it up properly. I've never driven a Vauxhall engined car, so I don't know how they compare with the X-flow. I believe the X-flow has more top-end, but the Vauxhall is better lower down the rev range.
I was intrigued by the various radiator measurements, so I've measured my 'stock' (Super, destroyed Mega, spare 1 & spare 2). They all measure: header width: 44mm, core width: approx. 35mm, CovRad numbers: 1 @ 58524, 2 @ 73315, 1@ no label. I've run the Super for 4 seasons & the Mega for 0.5 season without any cooling problems.
HTH,
Mark
