when the engine stops, the water circulation is stopped and owing to local heating under those conditions, more water will be lost than if the engine is kept running.
We have run a 40/50 HP. car 10,000 miles in France with a radiator with a 23/4" matrix. There was no trouble with the suspension brackets or fittings.
We attach herewith a sketch shewing how the larger shutters were arranged.
