the 1200 rad is fine

as for the pump, it SHOULD be ok - but the 1.2 tank doesnt have a swirl pot so u might get it cutting out when the fuel is low and your cornering

Dude,

Don't fit your pump in the bay, it's very dangerous! If you have a crash the engine stalls, the injection system cuts off the power to the pump. Therefore no fuel gets to the bay to be ignited by the hot engine...... Fit it in the right place.
