Engine Mishimoto radiators?

[Jhussey1280]

Does anyone have any experience with these? I was thinking of getting one from American Muscle. They seem to stand by them and Mishimoto does offer the lifetime warrenty. The problem is there are no reviews about the Mishimoto products anywhere. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Yes.
Dont do it.
Leak, leak, leak is what they do.

Between myself and a buddy we went through 6 or 7 before giving up and going with a stock style replacement.

Its not chassis flex, like some people like to say.
We both have sub frame connectors and the strut tower brace, along with the mishimoto radiator hold downs.
Its the radiator.

Save yourself the headache.

Thank you sir. I'll look else where.

What about the SVE 3 core aluminum radiator?

On the plus side, mishimotos return and exchange policy is very good.
Though I don't like messing with coolant every four months or so.

I've not looked into or used any SVE products.

The original radiator on my GT is starting to seep at the end tank. I was planning to get a stock replacement. I'll probably buy a Spectra radiator from rock auto. The price is right and I am sure it'll cool plenty well for a stock setup.

I believe a spectra is what I have in right now.
Its a stock replacement from AutoZone.
Been a couple years I think and holds up fine to the central valley heat.

Ive had good luck with them Personally, otherwise look into a Champion Alum www.championradiators.com, very nice for the price. Just used a Champion on a 600hp Blown SN94 with no issues
