I need a new radiator for my 1992 mustang. I am looking at the ford racing aluminum radiator or should I just get the stock replacement? I was also thinking about getting flex a lite black magic fan. Is it any good? What radiator fan combo would be best?

whichever one you get make sure its fully aluminum and doesnt have the plastic ends they crack under pressure over time

What about the flex a lite radiator fan kit. Is it worth it? Anyone have it?

ford racing does have plastic ends. go to AM and get yourself a mishimoto. there good quality and if they do leak you can return it and they give you a fresh one. or you can weld the cracked part back in

I heard moshimoto was garbage.

been running a ford rad for over 7 years with no problems.. also the black magic fans are great. but what ever you do don't get the proform on that looks just like it.. they are crap... [patriot]
