    17x9.5 front edelbrock 454 on a '69-70?

    65 Stang Aluminum Radiator

    ive brought this topic up on must&more, but id be interested in all your input as well... assuming for case, both setups have a 20x20 core support opening, which would be better off for cooling: 1) running a larger radiator with less fins exposed to direct air. *ie - 24or26"...
