I like my fluidyne aluminum radiator. It is larger and a tighter fit in mine, but mines a 95, so I don't know how much space you'll have. They make one for your year. I was really impressed by the quality of the welds. It looks pretty much indestructible.

I have a griffin, and it cools very good, at idle the temps go mabye to 190, but when I am running it hard it never goes above 180.
the only downside is I had to custom make the attaching brackets, and get some insulating rubber too.

but if you want a total bolt in rad, ford racing makes an aluminum rad for about $400.

is makin those brackets for the griffin hard? cause my car has a cooling problem also and im lookin for a good aluminum radiator that isnt too $$.....where did you get it?

I got it from a local speedshop called mopac.
the total time for the install, including cleaning everything I could see in the engine bay and cleanup of the shop it took me 11 hours.

the brackets took mabye an hour and a half to fabricate.

the fill spout points straight up so the one bracket has a half circle cut out of it to go around it, and the other bracket I had to weld a tab on it.
I dont have a digital camera, but I will draw a pic.
and I warn you, I am a bad drawer.
the dotted lines are bends.

are you sure its your rad thats the problem?
did you check the waterpump or thermostat?
does the temp go down when the heat is on?

sry it took so long to get back to my post, i have been working a lot, but yes i am shure it is my rad that is the problem, i have a 180 thermo, a new water pump, i have checked all the coolant lines and nothing leaks, but the motor is bored .20 over. I have a large 2 roe in it now and that made a little diff, but its not going to cut it, it runs about 182- 186 most of the time, but when i run it hard it will go about 198-205, and that is to warm for me. this in on a 85 to 95 degree day, its not to bad but i run it every day so ide like it to be a little cooler.
