I said this in another thread. For $149 you can get a Modine Aluminum radiator that fits in the stock location and has stock hookups and dimensions. They cool much better than copper and are lighter as well. You can get these radiators at Napa or I believe Advance used to have them. You may have to special order though. I did. Came in the next day.

I went with the one from ChargedAir, it has more than twice the cooling capacity.

On my Supercharged 355 the water temp never gets above
187deg, thats with both fans runing.
