cooling system suggestions
So ill start off with my current set up, i have a stock single fan with a stock aftermarket radiator, stock after market waterpump. The drive train set up is a decently built 355, th350 10in converter trans, and a ford 8.8 rear that i am currently upgrading for 3.23s to 4.10s. Motor has less than 2000 miles on it trans has less than 500 on it and the rear will be fully rebuilt, and i have had cooling problems with my old rear set up. I want to make this run as cool as possible especially since i will be running 4.10s in this upcoming summer. If anyone has a similar set up and has a good cooling system set up please let me know!

I have a 350 Vortec crate motor, and it has headers, ran kinda hot with the stocker so I went with Howes, all aluminum, American made. Not real pricey but really does the job, runs much cooler now, good stuff.

Re: cooling system suggestions
Yea i am not looking to spend a ton of money but i will spend it for a quality set up that will keep my car cool. How many core rad is it ?
