Default 1998 gt getting hot

I have a 98 gt and we noticed it has been getting really hot more then normal but not overheating just real hot inside and by the heater. My boyfriend is trying to look at it today and thinks maybe something is stuck where the heaters is. He said tha tflushing the Radiator wont help so I was just wondering if anyone else that has that year has had any issues like it as well and what did you do. He is not sure where the main part is to check it.. any help would be appreciated!!!

most mustangs of that year let heat from the engine into the cab down by your feet. Mine always has. As long as it is not overheating I would not worry about it. You could always get a lower thermostat or just put some purple ice in the radiator, that would cool it down a bit.
