hey, out of curiosity, are there any third gen people in this group? I have an 86 t/a, and im having a wee bit of cooling trouble. i have a 350, and therefore a slightly larger radiator than the wee ones that accompanied the 305, and i have a 160 thermostat in it, with a fourteen inch fan that we hooked up to run all the time, and yet i still have overheating problems. it doesnt have a shroud around it yet, because the fan is out of a crown vic... but that will be remedied soon. the stock air dam is in place, and in fine working order. short of buying a twin fan setup for it, anybody got any ideas? and does anybody have any idea if there has to be a low pressure area in the engine bay to help pull cool air through the radiator? i have a cowl hood on it, so i dont know if that has any effect or not...
