High Performance Engineering doesn't make their Radiator Kit anymore and they offered no suggestions or additional help. The part was discontinued due to a lack of need/sales. Any other manufacturers of Radiator Kits that fit the Switchback? I don't know where to look from here. There is nothing on Ebay. I can't even find a small enough radiator. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Heater core out of 70s-80s chevy cars work. I've seen guys mount them in the nose cone.

Edge Nose Cone Cooler
Under cooling is just
killing performance on
the Edge chassis.
This JAS cooler fits
neatly in the front of
your Edge model for
superior cooling which
means superior performance.
Where the
exchanger works
good, the radiator
type works even better and doesn’t need snow.
6915A Edge Nose Cone Cooler $249.00

I tried calling the # and it is disconnected,so I sent an email and will see if they respond.

Due to the design, the motor runs very hot on poor conditions, little snow, and lake riding. The Switchback has a very high rear end and the cooling system sucks. A radiator would eliminate any overheating problem that may occur. The dealer replaced everything else to stop overheating. I just don't want another winter in the shop every weekend. Know what I mean.

Got no answer from RPC racing (email and phone number failed) on the parts from their fictional online catalog. I can't find anyone who has a radiator Kit for the Edge. What now?

I can tell you that RPC is out of business/went bankrupt and everything was auctioned off.
