what radiator did you guys use in your fox conversion? Im looking to up grade from the fbody radiator I have in my fox coupe now to a larger after market one and was wondering what radiator some other folks used.

I have a ls1 fbody radiator in my coupe now and with the temps outside it gets up to 220 while on the freeway so I'm looking to upgrade to more cooling

I kept my Griffin aluminum raditor for Fox body, you do have to make your own hoses though. I used a hose connector from Jags that run along with 1 lower mustang hose and 1 lower 99 Camaro hose for the lower hose. I used a 99 Camaro upper hose with the adaptor from Jags that run for the steam line connection. Even when stopped in traffic I never exceed 195 degrees. Normally it crusies along at 180, I'd really like to have it run a little hotter as the LS engines really run better around 195-220.

Was wondering the samething, just about have the stock v6 motor and trans out of my 2000 and need to rebuild the radiator support due to mine being heavily rusted and bent and want to do a tubular support for which ever radiator is needed.
