Rear mounted radiator

Hi all, I have a bobtailed range rover classic pickup (B reg) with a 1996 discovery 300tdi engine and R380 gearbox in. I'd like to mount the radiator in the back somewhere so it's out of the way of mud etc, with an electric fan on manual switch. Is there anything I need to consider regarding lengthening the distance the coolant travels? I believe the coolant pump is relatively low pressure so I don't want to end up with coolant not reaching the radiator. Also do I need to get high pressure oil hoses made up for the oil cooler or will jubilee clips or similar be sufficient? I'm assuming the oil pressure should be around 50psi give or take without looking it up?
Cheers,

I can't comment on the water pump capabilities but I had to extend the oil cooler pipes when I fitted my 300tdi in place of the old 2.5na.
I used 2 jubilee clips at each end of the hose.
This has been like this since October last year and no signs of leaks or failure (prob just cursed it now!!!!)

I was hoping someone would say that! To be fair we've run air lines at 150psi on jubilee clips as a temporary measure!

With coolant, the pressure in the system is not created by the pump, but by the heating of the coolant and the expansion tank cap. The pump is a flow assisting type of pump and not a pressure type. In which case the pipes should be as large diameter as you can satisfactorily install so as to carry the required volume.

Most water pumps are centrifugal types whose flow is proportional to the speed of the impeller.

I don't know about the diesel pumps, but the V8 pump will overcome the pressure vent on the header tank if flow gets restricted.

Oil pipes, I would use threaded union connections.

Thanks peter. I'm using 38mm(ish) hose so I don't think it will be restricted much if at all
