Any aluminum 3 core radiator suggestions for a supercharged cobra?

93 cobra
supercharged w/
electric fan


I need a new radiator to replace my 3 core now. As of now there is very little clearance with the one I am using. I wanted go with a 3 core aluminum but I hear those are slightly bigger than the regular 3 core. I have also heard of guys notching out the plastic in the electric fan to make room for it.

I want one with aluminum cores as well. Any suggestions as to what brand I should go with? Thanks. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the reply. :beer:

I think I may go with a dual core aluminum . I hear the Be Cool radiators are good. The tech guys over there said they have sold many to supercharged guys with electric fans with no fitting problems whatsoever. They have them priced at $349 now. Here is a link to the one I was thinking of.

I would be sure to measure the one you have, and spec one the same or less thickness. What fan are you running?

Waz up Richard. :rockon:

The Be Cool Dual core radiator that I am interested in is an 1/8 thicker than the one I have now. I am pretty sure I can make it work. I use the 94-95 ford motorsport fan.

Motorsport has an electric fan? I didn't know that...

 

[SVT10TH#1721]

I think he means the one that comes out ig the 94-95 mustang's :shrug:

That's what I figured, just making sure.

 

[Naja]

Yeah, thats what I meant -sorry

Is running the electric fan a must, or you just want to free up the crank some?

 

[BADBOYSPACK]

Fluidyne is awesome, polished and fit very well on my supercharged mustang w/elec. fan. also they are just a good company, Mine was sitting in the box in my garage for almost 2 years before I ever used it. Put it in and it had a small leak, Called them told them the story and didn't have my receipt and they sent me a new and paid for the shipping. Awesome company. Also by far the best looking ones are the market right now. Get on their website and look at them. They are also 349.00

I agree on the fludyne. I've had them on the past 2 cobras i've owned. The one before was supercharged also. I sat in traffic for 1 hour and 45mins to get to the gate at the NMRA World Finals in September and the car never got over 190. It was bumper to bumper traffic the whole time and pretty hot. I was really impressed with it.

I started with a Be-Cool radiator, but switched to a Fluidyne. The Be-Cool I had was just too damn thick and didn't leave me much room for a decent fan. I did a lot of research on radiator dimensions after that and the Fluidyne was the thinnest dual core radiator I could find. It is also one of the best fitting radiators I've used.
