I've got one that I picked up from an Spitfire racer. It's just a
stock Rabbit unit, no modifications at all. Cross flow, electric fan.
I've never installed it because my oem one is doing an adequate job of
cooling the engine. It should be drop in though for the 70's vintage
Spitfires with that wide U shaped bracket that would hold the wide
radiators.
