![]() I like the Ford Motorsports unit. Like what come on a 93 Cobra.. Just my opinion.. Best bud is cooling a 460 in a fox body with one.

![]() I got a fluidyne alum. radiator about 3 or 4 years ago for a fox mustang..bolted up using the existing mounts and shroud and everything bolts right up to it. Cools great my guage never goes above 180*. I think I paid $260 or so for it but it can be fixed if it ever has a problem I belive a lot of the alum. radiators have a sort of epoxy on them that makes them hard to repair should something happen to it.

![]() I use the Fluidyne and absolutely love it out here in the desert where it can get to be 105-110* in the summer. I have had it 1 1/2 yrs now, and its actually my 2nd one. The 1st one got a pin hole leak in it, I called AMP Performance who I bought it through, and had a new one sent to me before I sent the old one back. Had it replaced for free. I believe they have a lifetime warranty with them, but not sure. Might be something to check out. Can't go wrong with it though if you ask me.

![]() I also have the Griffin circle track rad, the 31x19. It's awesome and I'd highly recommend it to anyone. The Summit is a great deal also, both in the zone of $180.
