are you looking for specificaly an MG RV8 radiator or a raidiator that'll work with a V8? I can't help with the former, but there are lots of choices for the latter... Early mustang radiators are popular & there are a couple of aluminum ones that fit well between the rails.

Whether you buy it in the US or not, it's probably actually coming from England.

Several of our website's sponsors import a lot of their stuff from England and are happy to track down special requests. In this case, I'd start with John Targett of Targett Motorsport and/or Bob Ford of Brit-Tek... if they can't help you, try Evan Amaya at Reborn Co. (Evan's shop is his main business, but I know he's brought in a lot of unusual parts too.) Our vendor directory is under the "contact" button above. Here's the direct link: Vendor Directory

Whoever you work with, please tell them you found them here!

Thanks for input Curtis. I'll give them a shot starting with John Targett. He has some
body panels I'm also interested in for my GT.
