What do you think about this place for the radiator? Could the height differens be a problem?

This won't work for several reasons:

1. No good clean air flow to the radiator.
2. No measures to prevent hot air re-circulation.
3. Radiator highest point in cooling system leading to air locks.

It's very hard to get a rear radiator to work properly.
Have a look around this forum and also http://www.vwkd.co.uk/bb/ for more tips and help.

Good luck with the project,

Iain.

Yes, you are right! I´d just needed someone to get me one right track again. I was trying to save me some work. Thanks for giving me some information and by the way you project thread on "vwkd" was very helpful! Thanks!
