You have one that is built into the radiator on the car stock. The best thing to do is to buy the biggest one you can fit and mount it on the front of the radiator.

Will i have 2 re direct the lines to the new cooler or will i just use both..?

hardcore91LX

No what we done with a friends mustang was just used the factory lines but disconnected them from the factory cooler and hooked the new cooler to them from there.

bzlover

Yeah we just plugged the holes in the radiator. He got the cooler from autozone I think it was the biggest one they offer it said on the box it was made for a RV.
