Well rad is leaking and need a new one. My car is basically stock ( 92 LX 5.0 5-speed). I do plan on adding a trick flow top end kit and supercharger down the road. So what kind should i get? Thanks for the input.
 
I run an aluminum 2 core radiator from Northern. It is pretty much a direct bolt in. I had to modify the hold down brackets a little but other than that its a nice unit. It has the slots for all the fan shroud mounting clips and screws so you can bolt the stock shroud right up to it.
 
Hello,

i run the mishimoto also. Very nice piece. It cools perfectly my 331 in conjunction with a dual spal fan assembly.

Nice Radiator. That fan kit fits perfectly. How much did the mishimoto set you back? I might start looking for one for the 70'.
I went with a Griffin 31x19 and its been cooling just fine.

I run one of the cheap Aluminum 1 core replacements available many places online. It is nice and light and I have never had any issues. I believe I got mine from rockauto for like $100. For a stock car it is more than enough and cools far better than the orignal ever did.

Stock fan as well.
