LDC Head Cooling Mod

[MVM]

I went to order the LDC Chicago head cooling mod but can find no website for LDC.

I then went to Lethal and saw that they don't carry it either. They do carry the Evenflow cooling mod

Is the LDC mod still being made or have other cooling mods been shown to be better?

Thanks,

Mike

Here ya go:

Ford 99-04 Mustang DOHC Cooling Mod [LCM] - $219.99 : Performance Parts - Ford Mustang - Cobra - Dodge Viper - Chevy Corvette - C6 - LS1

I believe they're the only ones that sell it now.

Thanks Evan!

You may look into even flow cooling mod. It doesn't require you to pull the tranny or blower.

Easier installation if not pulling transmission but unsightly otherwise in my opinion (sure others will disagree). OP, jump on the LDC from D' ^^^

It may be unsightly but it also doesn't have the ability to rupture your heater core

Has anyone ever heard of this occurring with the LDC cooling mod????? :shrug:

why would it do that? :shrug:

I would imagine pressure in the system is consistent throughout the system

Ummm...the LDC head cooling mod does not increase coolant pressure.
Nor do any of them.

They ALL do the exact same thing. Like I said, it just matters how you want it to look and how long you want it to stay together.

The LDC is BY FAR the most durable and well put together head cooling mod so far.

It might be harder to put in but good things are never easy...

The passenger side head feeds to the heater core, the LDC mod takes the water from the drivers side head and feeds it to the outlet of the passenger side head. Thus doubling the water that is sent to the heater core.

Guys - Thanks for the info.

The mod, whichever one I choose, is going to go on a virgin, 0 mile (except run in at Ford), 2004 Terminator engine that is sitting on a pallet, separated from the T-56, so I shouldn't have to remove anything as it is easy to work on outside the car.

I got the engine and transmission from Panoz Racing which stopped putting them into their race/street cars. I'm putting it into an AC Cobra replica (kit car) and want to do the right mods before I get the engine into the car and fire it up.

Thanks for all of the knowledge on this site. It's been a goldmine of information for me.

I've never heard that before, anyone else have that problem???
OP- Wow, sounds awesome. Would be fun either way... SC 281ci or a big block!!!

Try the APS kit at stangshiftergaskets.com. It looks really nice with AN fitting and billet alum parts. It needs access to the freeze plugs too...

oh and BTW Performance Parts - Ford Mustang - Cobra - Dodge Viper - Chevy Corvette - C6 - LS1 sells LDC.

My even flow cooling mod is not that unsightly. Really can't even tell it is there there is so much shit crammed back there and it is only 120$. However I did not like the blue hose (small one) it came with, replaced it with a black one. I had the blower off when I installed mine though.

but may require you to pull the blower.

but may require you to pull the blower.

It would make it a heck of a lot easier,but it can be done in around 2 hrs.I did mine w/the blower on:cuss:

 

[black01mustang]

The new evenflow kit doesnt require you to remove the blower.

I did the LDC last spring. Granted I was able to take them my car and have it done.And if you do not want to see it go with that. Besides you have the motor out anyways. Here is how to get ahold of the guy who did mine.

Wow... I really like the look of the APS kit! I didn't even think about doing the cooling mod back when I installed the McLeod twin disc and 26 spline input shaft... and really wasn't wanting to pull it all back out just for the cooling mod.:cryying: I really like the looks of the style 2 kit!:rockon:

The same argument can be made for the Even Flow head mod.
