Radiator position

The old Hillman Imp had an engine at the back and a radiator at the front they were a nightmare to bleed and used to overheat and blow the head gaskets regularly.

As well as the distance to pump you will have the air flow issues presumably you will have to go for an electric fan.

Anything is possible if you are determined but is it worth the extra complications ?

yes easy to do, there is a thread of mine on here some place with all the pics, no problem with the pump or bleeding, Rick
