Just finished installing a new FRPP 8005-C aluminum rad in my 89 5.0. How much coolant do in need to refill the cooling system? The block is empty at also. What brand do you recommend?
Thanks

I bought 4 gallons, is it a 2 or 3 row? Just get a 50/50 premix that is safe with aluminum and you will be fine.
