I got this one from Jegs...

I had to make some slight modifications to mount it, but otherwise it worked great.

Fluidyne keeps mine bone cold.

my fan only has to kick on when stuck in traffic
Maintains 185* with just slow forward speeds and no fan on, even on 95* Texas afternoon

It slid right into stock location with stock hold down hangers

Make the right choice and go with a Fluidyne aluminium rad. Its expensive but very much worth the money and if you deside to supercharge along the road you wont have to replace it with a different one.
