replacement radiator
im looking to get a better radiator without having to buy a $200-$300 one. does anybody know of any other cars with the same neck locations that are better than the stock thin foxbody one? like a crown vic, or truck or something? thanks for the input.

Just go to your local autoparts store, and tell them you want a 3 row radiator for your car. It'll be brass but it's way better than stock. You'll have to modify your brackets on the top of the radiator to make it fit as well but that's no biggie. I think mine was about $150. Good luck!

My car was heating up so I replaced my radiator with a cheapy one from pep boys, 100 bucks. I kicked my self in the a$$ because that cheap POS started to crack in 2 weeks. At least the car ran cool though :/
