The radiator cap just barely clears the hood, if that means anything, but I have not had any problems with it. <br /><br />The universal radiator hold down brackets Summit sells do not work. You have to make your own hold down brackets, which is no bid deal. <br /><br />For the hoses, stock ones do not fit well or at all. These numbers below are for hoses from AutoZone that fit perfectly, but cross referenced at CarQuest here. <br /><br />LOWER - (c)71593CS - <br /><br />UPPER - (c)71654 - <br /><br />The radiator drops right in. To get it to work with a Mark VIII fan took some cutting of the shroud to get it to fit. <br /><br />I actually dropped the radiator in and put a couple wire ties to keep it in place.<br /><br />You can also buy radiator ties as well. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Eagle347</b> <br /><small>Member # 6205</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2006,0,8,0,10,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Post some picks if you can <img border="0" alt="[burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" /> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>stoauto</b> <br /><small>Member # 2803</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2006,0,8,0,40,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> i had the summit radiator it was 19 by 31 i NEVER had any cooling issues. wider is better than thicker. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>PWR HNGRY 302</b> <br /><small>Member # 6000</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2006,0,8,2,16,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I got the fluidyne radiator and I haven't had any cooling problems since. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>cvr 5.0</b> <br /><small>Member # 2962</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2006,0,9,22,54,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> i just put my be cool (part # BCI-60165) in this weekend<br />looks and fits great<br /><br />cools a 400+ hp motor just fine <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>cvr 5.0</b> <br /><small>Member # 2962</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2006,0,9,22,54,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by cvr 5.0:<br /><strong> i just put my be cool (part # BCI-60165) in this weekend<br />looks and fits great<br /><br />cools a 400+ hp motor just fine </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">got it from summit <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
