It uses a 155K BTU Tube and Shell Heat Exchanger. You can find them on Ebay. The engine coolant does go through a plate exchanger in series with the radiator. Through the plate first. The plan is to install an electric fan that will turn on if the plate isn't capable of removing the engine heat. We thought about a radiator bypass but elected to keep the radiator in the system and use a fan when needed. It was simple that way and eliminated a lot of design work.
