Hey guys, yesterday my radiator cracked and my car is dead in the water . I have another vehicle to drive in the mean time so I don’t have to get it fixed ASAP, but I want to get my mustang up and running sooner than later. I need some help on deciding what to get. I don’t mind spending a little more $$$ to get a good quality radiator.
The car is a 2004 GT convertible It has 146k (hard) miles on it.
Stock internals, stock transmission, Mods are CAI, 70mm T/B, plenum, Mac pro chamber H pipe, Mac cat back system, 3.73s, aluminum driveshaft, ram clutch with a fidanza aluminum fly wheel, Diablo predator, M&M full length sub frame connectors, adjustable clutch cable, eibach springs, cobra brake calipers, cobra wheels with Vredestein tires 275/40/17.
I think I’m going to buy new hoses and clamps since I need a new radiator. Should I stick with a factory thermostat or go with a 160?
What’s a good upgrade from the stock radiator? And should I bother upgrading the fan while I’m at it?
What are you guys running?
Thanks for the help in advance
