2006 4.6L GT in my 69 mustang

[buschstang]

I am putting a 2006 4.6L in my 69 mustang. I was having trouble because the 06 radiator is way too big. Has anyone here done this and know if they make shorter radiators that still have the overflow system like a 06?

You should try the Classic tech forum on the boards. It would be of more help.

Unless there is something different about the 05/06's any good aftermarket radiator made to fit the 69 should work.

The 05 06 radiator has a different overflow system that I would like to stick with, the overflow goes back to the thermostat housing. Some of the 04's and earlier have the same setup, and I know that radiator is shorter, but I can't find anything with accurate dimensions, because it may be a tight fit.
