Old setup:

Kinja'd!!!

New radiator, transmission cooler, and fan are in. Now I’m on the hunt for 1/2" I.d. transmission cooler hose as the stock feed line isn’t long enough to fit around the side tanks of the new radiator without rubbing.

Pic of the new setup for comparison:

Nothing’s been easy this time around.....

3valve 4.6 ! My wife’s o6 really needs that set up. Very nice.

Same color too. Only 30000 miles and all stock. Just curious how much hp you putting down and with what mods?

I like your battery cardboard.

LOL, there’s not a lot of slack in that line and I needed the to kill power. The PCM lines had to be disconnected to facilitate installation.

Non-intercooled Whipple kit, JBA shorty headers, Kooks mufflers.

402 RWHP/365 RWTQ on a Mustang dyno.

Other mods include a double adjustable upper control arm, billet lowers with relocation brackets, Cobra Jet springs (which were the stock springs on the ‘08-’09 Bullitts), Watts link, Detroit locker, 3.73's, a Level 10 hardened transmission input shaft, and of course the wider wheels and drag radials out back.

I have a higher stall converter, but it needs re-adjusting, so the stock one is back in for now. I’ll put the new one in come spring time. I’d like to drive it a few times before the evil white powder falls from the sky.

The radiator is a Ford Racing piece. I also installed the fan setup from a 2013 GT500, and the transmission cooler from an 2011-14 Mustang with the 6 speed auto. Twice the cooling capacity.
