So my radiator crapped out, and looking for a quick fix without downtime as this is my DD. So, i just want to know if anybody is running them, and what's your experience? This is on the aluminum one with plastic end tanks.

never in a mustang, but I went through 3 from kragen/o'reilly's for my old 2001 s10 blazer. Constantly got one from them with pinhole leaks.

I ran Pepboys copper 3 row radiator for almost 6 years. Used it in both my 91 GT with HCI and in my Incon twin turbo notch and it never gave me any problems.

1800 radiator. but if you need it right away then you might want to find a place that stocks them.

Look up radiator classic on ebay i've bought mine from them lifetime warranty. Just like the kragen ones but cheaper. I got one cooling my bbc and it works great.
