How to cool a monster.

Ok, so i just got my hands on a pro built short block worth 17 grand that with 6 pounds of boost ran 11 flat with no third gear in a trans am on street tires. I have good world racing heads intake and carb and am getting a centrifical supercharger, self oiled ATI procharger most likelly.

I know i need a good rad to keep it inder control, i cant seem to find anything that fits in my 87 iroc and is able to cool off 700 horse or so that ill be runin. The motor is good for 900 horse.

Oh it fits. It's just not very fun to put in. Though a Be-cool or Griffin would probably be better.

If you ARE interested in a C&R though, go here: http://crracing.com/radiators/

You will have to call them or e-mail them. They don't make off-the-shelf radiators for our cars. Only custom-made. But they do make sport compact radiators, doh.
