i don't know how extreme your engine is, but there seems to be a lot of guys using the 3-core rad. from autozone on mild setups w/o any problems. plus, they come with a life time warranty.

Don't waist your time getting a shity one when you are running 10lbs of boost. Bite the bullet and get a 3 core and "be done with it" as you yourself put it. [Big Grin]

Look thru the mustang magazines such as Musucle Mustangs and Fast Fords or 5.0 Mustang and find the best price for one. You can pick up those two magazines at any grocery store.
