Radiator for stock 91 mustang GT

[MrPerfect2]

Auto trans / working A/C - all OEM style parts - new fan clutch and 192 thermostat - going to replace radiator to try to get temps down a bit . Any suggestions on a OEM style radiator - I found several in the $100-$150 range - anybody have experience going this route instead of a bigger radiator ? Any manufactures or features to look for ? Thanks

@Noobz347 Duplicate thread an hour and a half apart. You already have a "cooling issue" thread with all the info. Why in the world would you make another with the same exact pics and questions? You will find that makes people not want to answer. Or maybe it's just me.

I made this thread for a radiator suggestion , not on what is causing overheating or the cat question I had. I figured some different readers who did radiator replacements may be more inclined to suggest what to look for in a radiator . Sorry if I crossed the line and you were offended by this post -

LOL....wasn't offended at all. Just trying to help you with how things work around here. Btw.....it's all the same folks that read both. That was my point. No need for two. And "radiator" and "cooling" are the same thing according to the pics you posted. This thread will end up getting deleted probably since it's an exact duplicate. It's just nice to have all the details in one post...That's all.

I have a crappy radiator for Advance Auto. It's been working fine with my AFR 165 based H/C/I setup for years. Even keeps the car plenty cool when it's 100* and the AC is on.

Ok - $100 for the radiator on Amz sounds good to try ?

Sure thing. I never intend to tear into anyone. Sometimes I have to go back and smooth a bit. Btw...I have the SVE aluminum and it's working ok. It's cheap too.

When I change radiator and hook up auto trans lines - does the trans fluid just fill up space and purge itself from air ( or is it like a brake bleed ) - how much and type extra trans fluid will this require ?

 

[General karthief]

Just hookup the lines and start it up, hit reverse and drive, check the fluid level, likely no additional fluid will be needed.

I got a radiator from LMR. Worked ok but it was a PITA to remove/replace the radiator cap.
