Default Which Radiator and fan for 400HP

I am installing a 410HP Roush into a 1966 mustang and if at all possible I'd like to use the current dimensions for the radiator when purchasing a replacement for the old 2 core I'm taking out. It looks like an Aluminium 2 core (1 inch each tube) may do the job, and then I'll need a serious 16" fan.

Does anyone have any recommendations and experience on which would be the best quality and best result?

Cheers Bee

theres lots of options if you dont mind changing the dimensions. JamesW has a good write up on his which was pretty cheap. http://www.midnightdsigns.com/james/

if you want stock sized and appearance that limitschoices somewhat and increases the cost (but not necessarily the quality). try this as a starting point. http://www.jegs.com/p/JEGS/760077/10002/-1/10597scroll down to ford

IMO, 410hp (and depending on your location) would warrant going wider. Scott H has fitted a 67 radiator support panel. I am planning to cut outmy 66 panel to fit a wider rad. there is a natural line to follow there.
