Rad

[cheeks]

I've decided to get a Griffin aluminum rad and was wondering which one to get?...They have a 31x19" sportsman series and also the same size in a "Nascar" series...Price difference is only about $30 or so...Which one does everyone recommend/or have had good luck with?...thanx

Get the Nascar (circle track) one...I got that one...

The part number is GRI-1-26272-X

You need to buy one of their radiator caps to fit...and match...they are like $10 bucks...

I put in this radiator and a 180 degree thermostat when I added more power (h/c/i) and it cools 2 bars lower (on the guage) on the highway than it did before...it is a very nice working radiator

My car no longer heats up after WOT even with quite a bit more power...

You need to use the stock bottom radiator hose and flip it around and trim some of it off...then lube up the inside of the radiator hose to help slide on the bigger outlets on the radiator...

Also you have to bend the stock radiator brackets out (both the bottom and top) and it sits in there nicely...and looks good to

One of my favorite mods...

Good Luck

I have a AFCO aluminum rad in mine.Its just as nice as all the the big name brands but only half the price.I got it for $199.It works perfect. My stang barely gets to 180 dgress even on the hottest days.
