It's a cross flow out of a '73 Mustang, to match the Cleveland motor. I had to trim the radiator support a bit. It sits a little farther worward than the stock set up and I use an electric fan. The grey box on the side is the oil cooler and I de-wired the engine compartment.

There are a few photos of my engine compartment here, look at the last page to see how I cleaned up the heater hoses.

mount that fan to a fox body 3 row radiator and you too can cruise all day with water temps at 150.
