Default Max Radiator size?

Have got hold of a Clio rad with fan attached...but I'm not sure of the maximum dimensions as it seems fairly large. The overall width is 575mm including hoze inlets/outlet and the height is 445mm...how big are yours?? Can I use it?

ohh good idea would be fantastic to know what the max size is. Will need load of cooling on my one and have decided to go for a ally radiator that is extra thick.

Remember size is not the only consideration. The location of the inlet and outlets and if they foul the chassis rails is a major consideration.
